New Gunpowder Walking Trails for Ballincollig: The National Trails Office has approved four new walking trails in Ballincollig. The core route is a 7 km loop starting in the town, continuing westwards through the regional park and returning via the powdermills. This trail will be supplemented by three shorter trails of varying lengths within the regional park, all clearly marked. This is a wonderful initiative which will open the heritage of the town to a wider audience.
