Exploring the Fairy Door Trail in Dublin
The fairy door trail in downtown Dublin, Ohio is a whimsical adventure for all ages.
Downtown Dublin includes Historic Dublin, an area filled with shopping and restaurants, and Bridge Park, an entertainment area. Both are connected by the Dublin Link, a single tower, ‘S' shaped pedestrian bridge.
The Fairy Door Trail has 12 stops featuring tiny fairy doors hidden in unique retail shops. Each door has a resident fairy. Your goal is to visit each shop, find the fairy door, and write down the name of each fairy on your Fairy Door Trail Guide (download & print or pick one up at the visitor's center).
Return your completed guide to the visitor's center and receive a free Fairy Trails t-shirt.

Tips for Visiting the Dublin Fairy Door Trail
Plan your fairy hunt Tuesday thru Saturday between 11am-6pm, if possible, to be able to visit all the participating shops.

The Fairy Door Trail is fully walkable, so be sure to dress for the weather and wear comfortable shoes.
Downtown Dublin has lots of free parking and plenty of other fun activities for kids and adults.
The Dublin Fairy Door Trail is updated each St. Patrick's Day with new doors and new fairies – and a new t-shirt is released each year.
