Athgarvan

Athgarvan is a handy spot in County Kildare, 50 kilometers southwest of Dublin along the N7. The town sits right on Ireland's main Dublin-Cork route, with the M7 motorway nearby making it grand for commuters and travellers alike. You'll reach it in about 45 minutes from Dublin or two hours from Cork. It's just down the road from Naas and Newbridge for your shopping and business. The real draw here is being minutes from the Curragh Plains, where they've been running the Irish Derby since 1866 at one of racing's most famous venues.
