About Slane

Slane sits where the N2 crosses the River Boyne, about 50 kilometers northwest of Dublin, making it a handy stop for anyone heading north. Most folk arrive via the N2 from Dublin in about an hour, while those from Belfast take the M1 south to the N51 cutoff. The town center is compact with decent parking and over 30 fast EV chargers for longer trips. Slane Castle looms over everything from its hilltop perch, but the place is mad famous for hosting massive concerts in the castle grounds that bring 80,000 people to this quiet riverside spot.
