Kerry Greenways

Kerry Greenways

A source of pride for the county, the Kingdom of Kerry Greenways offer beautiful and unique ways to explore otherwise hidden parts of Kerry on accessible paths by bike or on foot. Two greenways are available currently, following the old Limerick to Kerry railway line, and a third greenway is under construction.

The Tralee to Fenit Greenway offers a 13.6km coastal journey with excellent views of Fenit Harbour and Mount Brandon, while the  53km Listowel to Limerick Greenway brings visitors through lush river valleys and diverse woodland settings. Near the routes, you’ll find glorious beaches, ancient sites, lively towns to explore, along with great food, accommodation and more to enjoy. The South Kerry Greenway is currently under development and will stretch 32km from Glenbeigh to Reenard, South West fof Cahersiveen

It has been announced that the Kingdom of Kerry Greenways will receive €8.25 million in funding for further developments as part of a national €67 million investment in greenways and Active Travel infrastructure through Transport Infrastructure Ireland in 2025. Of the funding €7 million is being provided towards the 32km South Kerry greenway from Glenbeigh to Cahersiveen, which is currently under construction. A further €200,000 has been provided for the development of the final section of the route from Cahirsiveen to Reenard point. Around €400,000 is being provided to link up the Tralee and Listowel Greenways and €150,000 for the existing Tralee to Fenit greenway. €100,000 has been provided for the proposed Cockleshell Road to The Spa Greenway.
