Riverhollow Wild Camping

Riverhollow Wild Camping is a nature reserve near The Rower in County Kilkenny, Ireland, that permits genuine wild camping on its wooded grounds.

Visitors can pitch a tent or hang a hammock, build their own fire, cook outdoors, and sleep under the stars — making it one of the very few sanctioned wild camping experiences available in Ireland. The site is intentionally kept small and peaceful.

Group sizes are limited to preserve the quiet, natural atmosphere, and the reserve can only accommodate a certain number of campers at any one time. It attracts a loyal following of returning guests as well as bushcraft and survivalist groups.
