Tree Walks in Cork

Cork has one walk that string its ancient trees together on foot, past 6 trees in all. Each one is an afternoon rather than a hike, and every tree on it has a story worth the stop.

The order is ours, worked out from where the trees actually stand; the walking distance is the real one along streets and paths where we have been able to route it, and a straight line between trunks where we have not. Nothing here is a signposted trail.

Fota Island

6 trees · about 1.83 km · 22 min on foot

Begins at The Canary Palm of Fota (Canary Island Date Palm (Phoenix canariensis)) and ends at The Spiral Cedar of Fota.

All of these stand in Cork, where we map 13 remarkable trees in total. Or walk somewhere else: Alicante · Alkmaar · Amersfoort · Amsterdam · Arnhem · Assen

Over 1,900 old trees worth the walk
