    I am planning to visit Copper Coast Geopark (in Bunmahon) this week.

    Any other beautiful attractions nearby Waterford City? Like mountains, beaches, castle?
    Any suggestions please?

    Thanks :)

    Nice beach for walks at Woodstown, Dunmore East has some nice pubs/places to eat. Doneraile cliffs up from Tramore nice for walks too.

    If you walk along the Doneraile path, go into the Coastguard station for a cup of tea or coffee, one of the really nice lesser known places in Tramore - though it is rapidly becoming very popular! Then continue on the path down to the Pier, you will pass the 'haunted holy well' under the steps at the end of the path. If you wanted more exercise you can go up the hillside footpath and onto the coast road and walk along to the Guillamene, along the top of the cliffs all the way, a nice walk beside the sea.

    The entrance for the Doneraile is at the top of the curve in Gallways hill, coming from the town, there is a small entrance with a sign, beside a yellow house.
