Further info
Cork Walks-Shandon Walk is a self guided discovery walk implemented by Cork City Council and funded by the Department of Transport as part of European Mobility Week 2009. It is the hoped that it will be the first of a series of such walks throughout the city and that it will be of interest to both tourists and Corkonians alike.

There are 3 elements to the walk;

 a leaflet with a map and description of sights along the way;
 ten information panels at key locations along the route;
 fingerpost directional signs to help guide you between the information panels.

This walk traverses some of the most historically significant parts of Cork.
