Sonairte
Just outside Laytown on the road to Julianstown is Sonairte, the National Ecology Centre. Dedicated to promoting ecological awareness, it’s a wonderful place to learn about sustainable living and organic horticulture. You can take a guided tour of the organic gardens and 200-year-old orchard, follow the nature trail or river walk, or take a course in anything from beekeeping to foraging for wild food and organic gardening. There’s a shop and organic cafe on site. The centre is five minutes walk from Laytown train station.

Mary Gibbons Tours
Tours depart from numerous Dublin hotels, beginning at 9.30am Monday to Friday, 7.50am Saturday and Sunday, and take in the whole of the Boyne Valley including Newgrange and the Hill of Tara. The expert guides offer a fascinating insight into Celtic and pre-Celtic life in Ireland, and you'll get access to Newgrange even on days when all visiting slots are filled. Highly recommended. Pay cash on the bus (no credit cards).
