The Rock of Cashel, South County TipperaryCounty Tipperary is Ireland’s largest inland county and lies at the heart of Irish farming with its gentle hills and richly fertile river valleys. The River Suir bisects the county and is noted for its brown trout. The beautiful valley of the Glen of Aherlow lies between the Galtee mountains and the wooded ridge of Slievenamuck. Historically an important pass between Limerick and Tipperary, and a notorious hideout for outlaws, Slievenamuck now offers perfect opportunities for horse riding, hiking, cycling and fishing. Looming over the town of Cashel, the medieval Rock of Cashel is an imposing sight, especially at night when it is lit by floodlights. Rising dramatically out of the otherwise mainly flat Tipperary plain, this rocky stronghold was a symbol of royal and priestly power for more than a thousand years. Other sights not to miss when in South Tipperary include Cahir Castle and the lively town of Carrick-on-Suir.
