About Portlaoise Skatepark
In the county town of Laois at a major crossroads in the Irish midlands, Portlaoise's skatepark gives this growing town a recreational facility. The park features a mini ramp, quarter pipes, ledges, a flat rail, and a manual pad. Portlaoise has expanded rapidly due to its motorway connections to Dublin, bringing young families and creating demand for youth facilities. The nearby Rock of Dunamase - a dramatic castle ruin on a limestone outcrop - is one of Leinster's most impressive historical sites. The town's position on the main Dublin-Cork-Limerick routes means excellent connectivity. Local riders represent the town's diverse, growing population. The restaurants and pubs in the town center serve honest Irish fare, and the Slieve Bloom Mountains nearby provide hiking with surprisingly wild character for the midlands.
