Welcome to one of the most brilliant archaeological sites in all of Ireland; the Rock of Cashel located in Tipperary. Tipperary is located on the route from Waterford to Adare in the South of the country. This collection of medieval church buildings and fortresses are set on top of a limestone outcrop that rises majestically out of County Tipperary’s Golden Vale. The kings of Munster kept this historical site as their base for 600 years. Enjoy an easy trek to the top of the Rock and see incredible views of the church buildings below.
