The County of Tipperary is situated in the province of Munster.
It is divided into two ridings for administration purposes. The North Riding (NR) and the
South Riding (SR). A county fashioned by the Galtee Mountains, the River Suir and lush
green landscape, Tipperary is where the visitor is King. Angling, Golf, Mountain Walking and Caving are all at hand, and
then there is The Rock of Cashel, Castles, Abbeys and Forts just waiting to be explored.
The River Suir and the
Knockmealdown mountains present a vivid landscape, and the Galtees
in the South west corner of Tipperary offer excellent scenery, with
the northern foothills overlooking the Glen of Aherlow. Tipperary
offers a variety of accommodation,
food and activities for all ages in a natural setting. Sporting
activities in the county are varied.
Tipperary
is famed in song and story and renowned for its scenic beauty heritage and culture, its
equine industry, and the warmth of its welcome for visitors.
