Preparation of Limerick Outdoor Recreation Plan

 

Supported by the Department of Rural and Community Development, Limerick City and County Council are leading the preparation of an Outdoor Recreation Plan for Limerick. This plan is to reflect the priorities of the national strategy, Embracing Ireland’s Outdoors – National Outdoor Recreation Strategy 2023-2027, and the relevant strengths, needs and aspirations of Limerick City and County for the next five years.

This plan has been developed collaboratively with Sector 3 Solutions consultants and a Project Team including representatives from Limerick City and County Council, Limerick Sports Partnership, West Limerick Resources Limited, Ballyhoura Development CLG, Failte Ireland and Coillte. The plan includes a record of consultation and analysis of the current offering of outdoor recreation in Limerick and culminates in seventeen proposed actions for the sustainable and strategic development of outdoor recreation in Limerick.
