Comeragh Mountains recreation strategy in development

Waterford City and County Council is in the process of developing the Comeragh Mountains Outdoor Recreation Strategy and Action Plan and has appointed Outscape to assist in the preparation of the plan.

This project is being funded by the Department of Rural and Community Development (DRCD) under the Outdoor Recreation Infrastructure Scheme (ORIS) 2023 – Project Development Measure.

The purpose of the Strategy is to provide a vision for the development of quality, well-planned and sustainable outdoor recreation opportunities in the Comeragh Mountains.

The project output will consist of a 10-year vision and roadmap, including a high-level action plan with more detailed actions for Years One to Three.
