Courtown offers many exciting and varied routes for you to discover. In recent years many of these walks have been restored to there natural beauty.
The River Walk is easily accessed from both the Picnic area and the Car Park in Courtown Village.
The top walk, accessed from the picnic area, overlooks the river walks in places. There is a short liking path to "Spike Bridge", which allows for crossing to the Coillte wood on the north side of the River. The Top walk is particularly magnificent in April as Large drifts of bluebell carpet the woodland floor.
For further details on Courtown Walks and many more in the area just ask Donal or Margaret or contact Gorey Tourist Office where full time staff will be pleased to help you.

The South-east of Ireland has a varied coastline of Bays, estuaries and harbours. The relative warm waters of the Celtic and South Irish Seas sustain a rich and varied fish population in both inshore and offshore waters, providing good sport for both the shore, small boats and deep-sea angling.
During July and August Sea-Trout arrive in reasonable numbers to many of the smaller rivers in the area, the best being the river Bride, Cooligan, Corock, Bridgetown, Boro, Urrin and our own Owenavorragh River in Courtown. Sea Trout in some of these rivers can be up to 1Kg in weight.
