Their influence can still be seen in the wealth of castles and other remains which dot the landscape. A fine example of their legacy can be seen at the Cistercian monastery of Tintern Abbey.<\/p>\n<p>Walkers can enjoy panoramic views out over Bannow Bay and of the Saltee and Keeragh islands as they follow the road beside the bay, which is an important bird watching area. The mild climate of this part of south-east Ireland ensures year round food sources and therefore good overwintering grounds for a wide variety of migratory birds. An expanse of mudflats exposed at low tide offers an ideal habitat for large numbers of waders, Shelduck, Brent geese and other wildfowl.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Directions to the Trailheads<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>From the R733 take the L4041 and after 1km turn right at the entrance to Tintern Abbey. Trailhead is just inside the gates.<\/p>\n<p>An alternative trailhead is located next to the Vine Cottage pub in Saltmills, Y34 WN83.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Further Information<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Please visit our Tintern Trails\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/TinternTrails\">Facebook<\/a> page.<\/p>\n<p>The village of Fethard on Sea is a 10min.drive away and has shops, pubs, cafes, etc.<\/p>\n<p>In Emergencies contact 999 or 112<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Please respect the beauty and tranquillity of the area, some trails are on private land and access is by kind permission of the landowners.<\/p>\n<p>Coillte have byelaws relating to their properties, details can be found on the<a href=\"http:\/\/www.coillteoutdoors.ie\/index.php?id=140\"> Coillte Outdoors <\/a>website.<\/p>\n<p>Please keep your dog under control at all times, some trails are close to areas containing livestock.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>TINTERN TRAILS HAVE BEEN DEVELOPED BY HOOK TOURISM WITH ASSISTANCE FROM THE FOLLOWING:<\/p>\n<p>COILLTE.
