The most iconic bridge in Cork as it is the only suspended pedestrian bridge in Ireland. It was officially opened on Aprol 1927 and recently underwent a massive restoration and was removed for this project. I am a kayaker and I love love to kayak on the River Lee. I kayaked at the time it was removed and I have to say it felt like Cork was missing a vital organ. It was returned like new on spring of 2020 and its stunning. The views of the Lee and on both sides Sundays Well on one and the Mardyke and Fitzgeralds Park on the other side are picturesque to say the least.

It is a beautiful bridge. One end of the bride connects to the beautiful FitzGerald park. The river view from this bridge is great. If you visit the FitzGerald park, I guess it is a must visit. It just takes a few minutes walk from there. I liked it here.

The Shakey Bridge is one of the most iconic places in cork, it’s a lovely place to visit and the bridge actually shakes but its total safe, so do not worry. If you are visiting cork it’s a must visit. It’s amazing at night to because it’s all lit up.

Daly’s Bridge, or the Shakey Bridge is a charming little spot in Cork. It’s a pedestrian suspension bridge with a bit of bounce to it, which makes it a fun and slightly quirky experience. It offers lovely views of the River Lee and is a nice walk, especially if you’re heading toward Fitzgerald’s Park.

There’s something really peaceful about it, and the gentle sway just adds to the character. A quick stop if you’re nearby, but definitely worth it—especially for a few nice photos and a bit of...

I like this bridge - it is a pity that I did not discover it sooner.

If you are walking along the river Lee on the Northside and you come to Sunday’s Well road and you want to cross over to Fitzgerald’s Park on the Southside then you need to use a pedestrian bridge known as the “Shakey” or “Shaky” bridge. Unfortunately I did not know that so I had a long walk.

The official name is Daly’s Bridge and it is the only suspension bridge...
