Galway is Ireland’s sixth largest city with a population of about 75,000. That number does not include tourists. In short, it can feel busy. The perfect respite is a serene and scenic riverside stroll. One walkway along the Lower Corrib starts at the Wolfe Tone Bridge and ends at the Salmon Weir Bridge. On the other side of Nun’s Island there is a path parallel to a canal beginning at University Road and stretching to Claddagh. A third recommendation is the quay along The Long Walk. They are all lovely and easy.
