The section from 12th Lock in Dublin to Sallins and on to Naas is open to cyclists and referred to here as the Sallins Greenway. The path runs from the 12th Lock near Adamstown in Dublin to Hazelhatch, near Celbridge and on to Sallins, a distance of 18 Kms.
The section of path between Sallins and Robertstown is open to walkers only and not yet suitable for cyclists.
However the section from Robertstown to Laytown and on to Athy is open to cyclists and the details of this greenway are provided under the Barrow Way Greenway here. Unfortunately the section from Laytown to Edenderry is not yet open for cyclists. Please also see the Canals page for information on how the canals of Ireland emerged.
There is a short section of public road of about 1Km from Sallins village necessary to gain access to the off-road cycle path at the side of the canal to Naas town. The details of how to access this section is outlined in the Travel page here.
