Arriving by train or bus to MacDonagh Junction and fancy a walk? Estimated walk time from Google Maps is 19 minutes from MacDonagh Junction train station / shopping centre to the College Road. Estimated drive time is 3 minutes (obviously with no cars on the road). With traffic in the morning I would expect a spin from the train station to take no more than ten minutes.

Click the links to open up the full map with driving / walking directions.

• Map from MacDonagh Junction station (point A) to Hotel Kilkenny (point B)

If you’re coming in from Dublin, then you’ll want to check this map here. Once you hit the main Dublin Road roundabout (you’ll pass the industrial estate, Duggan Steel, Maxol Station all on left side), turn left onto the ringroad, cross the bridge and keep going straight until the last roundabout (total trip <5 minutes). At the last roundabout (Callan Road roundabout), turn right, pass the Esso Station and Hotel Kilkenny will be on your right hand side.

• Dublin Road (Point A) to Hotel Kilkenny (Point B)

If you’re coming from Waterford or Cork via Waterford then see the below map. Coming in the Waterford Road you’ll pass through Foulkstown with the cemetery and Kilkenny Rugby Club on left, onwards towards the car dealers on the right, through the small roundabout and passing Springhill Court Hotel also on your right. At the Waterford Road roundabout, turn left, go straight through the next roundabout (Kells Road) and on to the Callan Road roundabout. As above, turn right, pass the Esso station and Hotel Kilkenny is on your right.

• Springmount / Waterford Road (Point A) to Hotel Kilkenny (Point B)

For those of you coming from the Cork / Tipp direction (possibly from Cork via Clonmel on to Callan, then Kilkenny) you’ll find yourself on the Callan Road. Gone is the sight of Mary’s Cathedral as you come over the hill, now you’ve got hundreds of new houses on your left hand side and the Kilkenny VEC / SOS on your right hand side. As you approach the Callan Road roundabout, you can go straight through, pass the Esso station on your right hand side and Hotel Kilkenny will be on your right (hook the right at the roundabout outside Hotel Kilkenny to get into the hotel carpark).

• Callan Road (Point A) to Hotel Kilkenny (Point B)
