Take a moment to reflect at Our Lady's Grotto before starting your guided virtual walking tour around Lady's Island Lake in County Wexford, with natural heritage guide, Jim Hurley.
This trail follows the shoreline, taking in the magnificent views of swans gracefully paddling in the lake, surrounded by lush greenery and fresh, invigorating air.
As you arrive at the more exposed northern side of the island, Jim shares his knowledge of the flora and fauna that call this place home. Standing underneath Our Lady's Statue, Jim describes the fascinating traditions and customs associated with the island, including the story of the ancient Celtic pagan sun-worshipping druids and druidesses who once inhabited this island.
Afterward, continue past the Holy Well, where many have come to seek healing and comfort for centuries, before finishing at the Norman Tower House.
