Riverside trail with flooded fields, scrub and riverine woodland. Regular public walking so arrive early for best birding.
Diverse habitats offer a wide range of species within a small area close to Enniscorthy Town. River birds such as kungsfiskare , Smådopping , gråhäger and Silkeshäger can be seen regularly.
Alders along the first part of the trail often hold grönsiska and brunsiska in winter while the same season sees the flooded fields hold large flocks of tofsvipa and ljungpipare along with Kricka , gräsand and occasionally bläsand. Spring migration can bring drillsnäppa and rödbena.
Further along the trail, the scrub holds svarthakad buskskvätta whilst the woods nearby have ormvråk and nötskrika.
The first section up until the bridge is wheelchair accessible and most species should be viable from this stretch.
It is also worth taking a look at the river area both between and a little beyond the two bridges in the centre of Enniscorthy town for forsärla, strömstare, gråhäger and gulls, at low tide.
Otters and grey seals (at high tide) are both seen regularly even close to the town.
In Enniscorthy, park in the car park next to the children's playground near the Riverside Hotel and follow the obvious riverside path. The alders along this first stretch should be investigated for finches in winter. Just before the bridge over the tributary the area of scrub and woodland to the right following the Urrin tributary should be explored also - a natthäger was once seen along this tributary and the area is also good for kungsfiskare and grå flugsnappare. The flooded fields are best viewed from the bridge and a telescope is useful.
The trail continues along the river through a scrubby area before finishing at an impassable flooded area, though there is access up into the woodland area when dry.
