    Straight up Grace Park road, cross Collins Avenue and continue up. It will be on your left. Walking it takes round 25-30 minutes. Car with decent traffic 5-10 minutes. Its not far. I walked it the last number of games.

    Or

    0.00 Start out at Tolka Park (Dublin),Dublin Unclassified 0.00
    0.10 Turn right onto Drumcondra Road Upper - N1 N1 0.10
    1.05 At traffic signals turn right onto Collins Avenue West - R103 (signposted Malahide, Howth) R103 1.16
    0.24 At traffic signals turn left onto Beaumont Road (signposted Beaumont Hospital) Beaumont Road 1.40
    0.59 Turn left Unclassified 1.99
    0.27 At roundabout take the 1st exit Unclassified 2.25
    0.05 Arrive at Beaumont Hospital,Dublin Unclassified 2.31

    A total journey of 2.31 miles.

    Straight up Gracepark rd onto Beaumont rd (a continuation) is quicker and
    no more than a 1.3 miles I'd say.

    Why??? Plus traffic can get mighty heavy on Grace Park Road, so sometimes the other route is better!
