Tracks & Trails Series 11, Ep6, Tipperary 2nd half
PART 2: In the final episode in this series, veteran journalist and political commentator Tommie Gorman visits Co.Tipperary to walk part of an ancient trail taken by St. Declan.
A committed walker Tommie weaves his love of being outside on the trails with connections he makes along the way through his deep knowledge of Irish history and politics. In this programme we follow just one trail, packed with places to stop and stories from our ancient past and our much more recent history and Tommie revels in every step of the discovery. With new places to uncover and quiet spots to stop and reflect, Tommie Gorman truly makes this trail his own.
Although St. Declan’s Way follows the route that Declan took when going from Ardmore in Co. Waterford to Cashel in Co.Tipperary to meet St. Patrick in the fifth century, on Tommie’s journey he starts out from the market town of Cahir, Co.Tipperary and walks in the direction of the Knockmealdowns. There is much history and many sites of national significance along this trail, the first stop being right at the start of this walk in at the perfectly preserved Cahir Castle. After a wander inside the castle walls Tommie set off along the towpath alongside the River Suir where he arrives at Swiss Cottage. This is a beautifully restored cottage Orné hidden in the trees on the banks of the river. Tommie leaves the river behind and hits the quiet road sections of this trail through the Tipperary countryside. It is along one of these rural settings that he comes to the ruins of Lady’s Abbey, an old church and graveyard where he takes time to stop and reflect on times of deep significance in his own life.
One of the lovely features of this trail is the variety of terrain underefoot from, towpaths, country lanes, forest trails and mountain paths. Nearing the last section of his trail at Knockbilliniry forest park he meets Dr Janice Fuller from Coillte who talks about the importance of forests in Ireland for recreation, for the protection of our wildlife and their role in protecting against climate change. With plenty to think about and the skies opening up he weaves his way through the forest to visit a site of huge national significance from our more recent history. It is here at the top that John G. Dwyer a local historian recounts the fascinating story of Liam Lynch who died in this area during our civil war and tells how his death here effectively brought the Irish civil war to an end. The place is marked with a memorial where Tommie and John G part ways having shared their love of Irish politics and history.
To finish this trip to Co.Tipperary Tommie walks the rugged and scenic route through the forest and up into the knockmealdowns where he finishes the show with a reflection on all he has seen and heard looking across the rolling landscape and in the shadow on Sliabh na mban.

Wonderful very relaxing.
Thanks for this - must try this one. I live in Bray and only started hiking very recently but am really liking it. When researching routes I was amazed how many 2-4 hour walks there are within 30 minutes drive of where I live.
Its Elizabethan English with some reminants of Irish. Leinster province was hesvily colonised and settled by English colonisers and their influence on local dialects is clear in.many ways.
RIP Tommie 🙏
Wonderful video! We've done the Bray cliff walk a couple of times. And I did Bray head way back in 1986... thanks for some new ideas for my next trek to Ireland.
Really glad you enjoyed it and thanks for the lovely feedback! These walks never get old and offer something different every time.
@@IrelandsTracksandTrails One more thing... my wife and I visited that beautiful lake when we stayed in Wexford for a few days this summer. It was also wonderful.
@@ESUPhysicsBuckley Beautiful! Well we are working on a new series and will have lots more walks and trails for exploring released next year. We hope you will enjoy them too! Thanks again
Great video. I'll do it some day when I'm back in the country.Do you have your own camera person?
Thank you, we appreciate it! Yes we have more than one camera person and shoot this for TV also as it airs on RTE. Thanks!
Good
Nice sir
Yola is not a dialect of Irish.
Excellent video, top class editing. Great use of drone footage that draws you in. Great mix of background music.
Thanks for the great feedback! glad you enjoyed it.
👍🥃
I just found your channel, great content, subbed!
Thanks so much! Really appreciate it! Enjoy
Appealing presenter with a nice manner.
Love bringing my eldest grandson on a walk through the secret garden he loves it.
That's a gorgeous thing to do with your grandson! 😍
@@IrelandsTracksandTrails There is something very special about the secret garden grandson loves it he is only 7 on one occasion we came across a lovely dog and a cat walking together through the garden the must have belonged to someone won lives close to the garden he just loved petting them and they were so friendly.
This was an amazing video! Thinking of walking the Monaghan way in my own backyard now!
Aw that's great news, thanks for the lovely feedback!
Great video. Well presented.
Thanks a million, we really appreciate the feedback!
Nice one 👏
Thank you!
Amazing show - whoever did the music loves inception by the sound of it!
Thanks so much, the team really appreciate it :)
Beautifully done a great start to my morning !
Thanks so much for the great feedback Alannah!
Got a tattoo of Ériu on my arm last year while in Liverpool. A great party piece. No booooody seems to know who she is/was except MOI. ☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️🙋♀️🙋♀️🙋♀️🙋♀️🙋♀️
We love this!
Let’s go!! Tracks and trails is back. Looking forward to it!
அழகிய அயர்லாந்து
Tay, quare, awul, yoke. Hardly confined to Wexford. These are used everywhere.
Was thinking that myself. That Yola-English dictionary isn't going to sell that well me thinks. 😂
@@martinrea8548he asked what words we’d recognize and she gave words we’d recognize, of course she didn’t list off words that you wouldn’t recognize, look up some old yola songs and you won’t be able to understand them
That’s because 500 years ago the British monarchy exported thousands of Wexford Irish and Scotch-Irish to colonize Canada and America.
You got perfect weather for some of that filming!
We got lucky!
He gif triggered when she called him qeeer
It's an English language not an Irish one
It has vocabulary that also make it Irish and wouldnt be understood in England.
She said it's a little English, a little French.
She didnt use any real Yola. Tay, quare, ould, yoke are used all over Ireland.
because of yola, they're loan words from that dialect
@@hadiisaboss5307 They are from general Middle English before the vowel shift where ea was pronounced like ay. English arrived into Ireland through different areas principally Dublin and not through Wexford specifically. Yola developed its own characteristics in Wexford. Real Wexford people dont say quare as in other counties they pronounce it as 'quawr'.
Isn't that 'fuzzy lichen' also known as usnea? I thought it was a moss!
Great video guys go raibh maith agat for sharing.🌱🌅🍀
Thanks a million for the feedback!
Looking class
It is!
Looks class
It really is!
Please revive this language.
400 people are now doing that and speaking it in Wexford according to Wikipedia.
I'm from Wexford and I just thought it was our slang,I didn't know it was called yola,we say these word's every day
Id have LOTS of babies with that fine lady!! 😍😍
Class video
thanks a million, glad you liked it!
Old in Yola is yola
>medieval language >looks like french i'm dying
we all missing Enya new music
We were there in June 🟩⬜🟧
We hope you had a wonderful time, it's so beautiful.
DIALECT?????
ireland i love
💚
thank you @@IrelandsTracksandTrails
I Must have been on that path a good 50 times. It’s a beautiful walk, although I prefer headin up binion for a bit of a sweat. Brilliant wee film, fairly puts it into perspective when you see it from the air. Thanks.
Thanks so much, it's a stunning place! We can't wait to go back.
My favourite destination in the whole of Scotland Ireland and England
It's a stunning place full of some much history. Hope you enjoyed the show!
Or Wales too I wonder.
who will tend this field in a hundred years when there are no celts left in eire ?
Really well made video 👍
Thanks a million, glad you like it and appreciate the positive feedback! 👍
Taking me back to Wexford, it's been 10 years since I went on my genealogy tour. Thank you for presenting the beauty.
My Wexford ancestor William Johnson and son Lawrence showed up in Bear Cove Nova Scotia shortly after the rebellion with a chunk of money to buy land including for Andrew Scallian also from Wexford. I've tracked the Scallians to the Ballysheen cottages behind the Lobster Pot. I have got 23 years of genealogy research but still I suspect the rebels escape muddied the research. Just discovered this series and loving it.
Thanks so much for the positive feedback, we're delighted you found and enjoy the series. We are filming right now so more to come in the not too distant future.
I want to go back... I know so much more about my Scallians and Doyles of Carne then I did back in 2013... this was such a lovely experience for me this morning nicely done.
Thanks so much for your great feedback Alannah! We really appreciate it.
Coleraine is in County Londonderry
The feeling gets into your Bones, heritage all the way, a truly magical place
Thanks for the lovely feedback, so glad you enjoyed it.
Thank you for posting this. My mother's side is from that area- the McCrohans. We're planning a trip to visit next year.
Thanks for much for the positive feedback and we hope you have the most amazing trip!
