Top of The Rock Pod Pairc & Walking Centre

Specialties

We are the third generation of Rosses to live here at the Top of the Rock. We look out on an ever-​changing vista of mountain, cloud and sunshine. This ancient meeting place has once again come alive with the sound of families taking time to be together.

Our Pod Páirc is a safe and homely place for your family holiday or weekend away. It is also a perfect venue for couples with miles of walkways and river banks to wander along. Larger walking groups also come to avail of our group rates and wonderful facilities. Often people just come solo to take time out on their own. For the adventure enthusiast, there is walking, cycling and cross country running in the challenging landscape surrounding us. Our working cattle farm with its sheep, hens and ducks is a hive of interest for young and old alike, and you will enjoy meeting our dog «Daisy».
