Are there any suggestions for taking the most interesting (rather than the quickest) route by car from the Croom area to the city of Kilkenny? Thank you
Well, there's always Cashel ... assuming that you haven't already been there. If you're game for a bit of a hike you can walk down the hill after visiting The Rock to the ruins of Hore Abbey - an evocative site in it's own right with the looming perspective of the Rock above. Nice place for general meander and maybe a picnic lunch.
