Itinerary description

Carton House is a country house and surrounding demesne that was the ancestral seat of the Earls of Kildare and Dukes of Leinster for over 700 years. Located 23 km west of Dublin, in Maynooth, County Kildare, the Carton Demesne is a 1,100 acres estate, from an original estate of 70,000 acres. For two hundred years, the Carton Demesne was the finest example in Ireland of a Georgian-created parkland landscape. In the 2000s, much of the demesne was redeveloped into two golf courses and the house into a hotel complex.

This loop trail (Red Route) is an easy route, it takes an average of 50 min to complete. This trail is great for biking, running, and walking, and it's unlikely you'll encounter many other people while exploring. Dogs are welcome, but must be on a leash.
