Leopardstown Racecourse

On the go since 1888 and a stone’s throw away – indeed, indirectly how The Gallops got its name – Leopardstown Racecourse is worth a visit at least once. Fixtures can be seen here.

Dublin Mountains

Close by (and free!) we are lucky to have the Dublin Mountains as a local amenity. The Dublin Mountains website contains useful information about making the most of this resource.

“The Dublin Mountains is an exciting recreational facility for the young and old. Whether you are interested in a walk with the family, a cross county hike or a spin on a mountain bike, the trails and forests of the Dublin Mountains has something for everyone. Let’s get out and enjoy it.”
