This is a beautiful wild coastal walk in a landscape of bog and windswept mountainside with stirring seaward panoramas from towering cliff edges. It follows surfaced roadway, bog roads, grassy tracks and paths and takes you past the Children of Lir sculpture before heading inland with a fairly demanding ascent over open ground.
