The River Nore is one of the Three Sisters rivers which flow into the sea at Waterford City in the Republic of Ireland. It is 87 miles long, and is a noted river for salmon and trout fishing. The Nore rises on the eastern slopes of the Devil's Bit Mountain in County Tipperary, flowing south-eastwards into County Laois and County Kilkenny before joining the River Barrow just north of New Ross. The river passes through the city of Kilkenny and the towns of Bennettsbridge and Thomastown. Further south, it forms a picturesque V-shaped river valley, particularly notable near the village of Inistiogue . Major tributaries of the Nore include the Dinin, the King's River and the Black Water.
