Windgap

Ireland

Windgap lies along the N9 between Dublin and Waterford, making it a handy stop for travellers heading to the southeast coast. The town sits about 120 kilometers from Dublin and 40 kilometers from Waterford, right in the Nore Valley countryside of County Kilkenny. You'll find decent charging options for electric cars, with around 18 fast charging stations nearby. Mount Juliet Golf course and local wellness spots like Vivo Saunas are worth a visit. The name comes from "Bearna na Gaoithe" or "gap of the wind," after the natural pass through the hills where the old road between Kilkenny and New Ross was built.
