Places to take dogs in Cork

Vivara

Does anyone have any suggestions... other than Fitzgerald's Park or Currabinny Woods to take dogs in Cork?

Any activities? Parks? Etc?

Thanks,
Ed.

Walk from Crosshaven to Carrigaline

Hogzy

The walk from Rochestown to Passage.
The walk from the Marina to mahon via the old railway line running through blackrock.
Backstrand in fountainstown...

to name but a few

Faith

Any of the million beaches. Killeagh woods. The Lee fields.

Farran Woods, you have to keep dogs on a lead, but if you get down to the water's edge by the Inniscarra Dam, you can let the dogs go wild in the water chasing after sticks.

garryvoe beach would be good, just dont go near it when its sunny at the weekend!!, its grand on a quiet weekend when the tide is out, loads of room for dogs,

Contact dogsindistress.org

Got a rescued dog from them & was contacted to say they had meetings from other dog owners , walks interation etc in Cork area shortly after getting the dog 3 years ago.

Never went, mine are in the country & have over 100 acres to roam when we are out .They come home exhausted & so do I but it would suit if I was in a housing estate ( I was before )

Snoogans

It's not the best walk by any means, but if you're up late at night, taking the dog for a walk up around the lough is actually surprisingly zen. You run into some interesting characters down by there too, and not the scary kind.

i dont have a dog, my parents do, its just from seeing garryvoe beach when the tide is out it looks ideal for walking dogs,

A bit out, but Dripsey Lake in Inniscarra has a great "walkway" path kinda thing. Also, Douglas Park and Ballincollig Regional Park.

Ballincollig Regional Park is great. You walk along beside the riverbank towards the Anglers Rest. Dogs can have a dip near the weir. Not sure if you can walk all the way back to the Anglers. Someone else might be able to confirm this.

Another one that is a little far out but so worth it is the Gearagh out just before you come to Macroom, fantasic spot

as is the law. I'm sure all dog owners here are the law abiding type Just remember walkways are used by people with young children & toddlers too so please clean up after your dog.

I think Cubins nightclub in the city seems popular - plenty of dogs in there!:D

Hmm, I have twice seen people cleaning up after their dog (am living in Cork for the last eight years), and in both cases the dog owners were foreign nationals.

You can't really walk all the ways down to the anglers directly, you'd have to hop a few fences and stuff, you can go all the ways down to the gun powder mills though, it's a good walk.
