Hiking
Situated in the Claddagh area of Galway city, South Park (referred locally as ‘The Swamp’), is an excellent starting point for a longer walk of the famous Salthill promenade. Its closeness to Nimmo’s Pier also allows for pleasant harbour views and numerous swans swimming about. Other features in the park include; a Gaelic playing pitch, a Rugby pitch, two Soccer pitches, a playground and several benches to relax and areas of planted flowers, shrubs and trees. There is also easy beach access - feel free to take a swim!
