Portlaoise is an historic town in County Laois. There are a lot of things to explore from the 800 year old hilltop castle at Dunamase to the natural beauty of the Slieve Bloom Mountains. The Slieve Bloom Mountains are a cyclist’s paradise. Cyclists will find quiet lanes, gentle and challenging slopes and there is also a new mountain bike trail planned for the Slieve Blooms. The quiet roads and forestry trails of the Slieve Blooms are ideal for leisurely and safe cycling either on or off the surfaced road.
