The town is thought to be about 250 years old, and the town and surrounding area are rich in archaeological heritage and well worth exploring. Millstreet Country Park, a 500 acre environmental park features natural boglands and wetland habitats, a sensory garden, archaeological sites and entertainment for younger members of the family. The Park has many miles of trails – the short ones can be covered on foot, the more extensive on wheels (comfortable open sided vehicles driven by local guides).
