Carlow is the second smallest county in Ireland by area after County Louth, so navigating the county is easy. The county is a Mecca for walkers and hikers on the surrounding hills that are not too arduous in their elevation. The river Barrow flows through the county allowing good fishing and river walks. Barges sail on part of the Barrow down to Graiguenamanagh in Kilkenny. There are several superb golf courses in the county, including Carlow Golf Club in the capital, Mount Wolselsey in Tullow which is a Hilton Hotel Golf and Country Club resort and Killerig Golf Club also near Tullow.
