By Foot in Kilkenny
Kilkenny, due to its size, is a most walkable city. You can reach both ends of the city in a matter of minutes. All sites are within walking distance of one another and the walks through this Medieval city are extremely enjoyable.
The main streets are laid out like a backwards L. From the railway station, John's Street runs southwest to the River Nore, becoming Rose Inn St. on the other side. This ends at the Parade, where the castle is located. A 90 degree turn here brings you on to High St, the main shopping street. This runs on, becoming Parliment St., then Irish Town, where St. Canice's Cathedral and round tower are located.
There are walking tours available in Kilkenny City, most notably the Tynan Walking Tours which brings you around this ancient city.
