    In the west or midlands, I'm looking for nice Autumn Colours.:) I know of Forest Park and that place where Centre Parcs are setting up.

    Anybody know of any others?

    Emo is very nice for a stroll all year round. Nice coffe shop there as well.

    Ir Glenbarrow waterfall in Laois has a very nice treelined walking route of about 7km.

    Mount Congreve gardens in Waterford, or JFK Memorial Park in New Ross, Co. Wexford are both lovely, though probably too far away. For future reference though :)
