A Description Of Kilkenny

The central part of County Kilkenny is undulating limestone plain, bordered in some areas by gently sloping hills. In the north are the attractive uplands of the Castlecomer district and the Slieveardagh hills and Booley hills extend across the County Tipperary boarder on the west. There are many pleasant landscapes, especially in the Rivers Nore and Barrow valleys, and
the historic county town has numerous points of interest. Kilkenny is also excellent sporting country, with good opportunities for hunting, angling, shooting and golf.
