Greenway
The Greenway is a trail that links the historic town of Blessington to the Palladian mansion at Russborough House.  This is an opportunity to rejuvenate the senses, explore the beautify landscapes of Blessington and immerse yourself in nature. A must do for any and all outdoor enthusiasts.
The trail begins in Blessington and leads along the shores of Blessington Lakes and goes through areas of natural forestry and woodlands. It then crosses an ancient medieval Ringfort, uses the footpath along the N81 before turning back into the forest at Burgage Moyle lane. It then crosses the Valleymount Road (R758) and makes its way to Russellstown Bay adjacent to Russborough House. This trail allows you to appreciate the beautiful scenery and wildlife on offer in the area.
This immersive experience can be accessed by any number of means it can be walked, ran, or cycled which is facilitated by bike hires within the area if needed.
The Blessington Greenway is being developed further into the Wicklow Greenway and in the future will be the first official E-Greenway in Ireland too!
The trail approximately takes 1.5 hours to complete the total 6.5kms and is suitable for anyone to enjoy!

Big Blue Bus
The Big Blue Bus is a 1979 double decker bus that has been converted into a pizzeria. The Big Blue Bus is currently located at The Avon Resort in Blessington. It serves delicious gourmet stone baked pizza, bruschetta, and garlic bread all made with local produce.
The Bus operates on a takeaway/collection and delivery service while also providing seating on the second level of the bus and more seating outside which can still be currently used with COVID-19 restrictions.
You may have spotted the Big Blue Bus previously as it can travel from location to location and often appears at festivals throughout Ireland including Life Fest, Barn Dance, Knockanstockan, Body & Soul, Samhain and Electric Picnic. The top deck of the bus can also be hired for private events or parties.
The Big Blue Bus provides a number of different vegetarian, vegan and low gluten options as well as having new pizzas introduced through their weekly specials.
The Bus also offers free pizza to two randomly selected names each week so be sure to check their official Instagram @thebigbluebuspizzeria to see what names they have chosen each week!
