About
The River Nore is one of the most beautiful trout rivers in Ireland. In its upper parts it meanders its way through some stunning scenery passing close to Mountrath at Castletown and Kilbricken, then on to Abbeyleix and Durrow in Co. Laois. It then flows through Kilkenny and on to Thomastown passing through Mount Juliet and Inistioge before joining its common estuary on its way to Waterford Harbour and the Celtic Sea.
