Itinerary description

The Cliff walk is by far the most popular trail here. There are many benches with scenic views along the way.
There is an option to shorten the walk to the signal tower or keep going as far as Glenawilling Beach.
There is also the option to return by country road but our preference was to stay by the coast.
The second part of the walk is to Ring Strand (which is in the opposite direction).
This trail by the sea is mostly stones and rocks... so may not be to everyone's liking.
Unless, if looking for sea shells... there are plenty all around.
This time did return by road as it was much easier to walk and also it is a nice country road.
