Parks & Nature
Fota Wildlife Park
Hiking and moutain biking. Can hire bikes at trail head. Recommend 2 loops of green trail (14km in total) after warm up on skills loop. Or if experienced go straight for brown (16km) taking in one or two of the technical loops you'll see on route adding another 3/4kms. Sometimes there is a special enduro route depending on upcoming races which you can try out as well, just ask at trailhead bike shop.
