Highest on the Loop
by TommyV  23 Mar 2019
As Moveen Hill is the highest point on the Loop Head peninsula, the views on offer are great for such little effort. As mentioned by sandman, through the quarry and then out onto the open hill is the easiest way to access it. I did notice alot of sections of the quarry fenced off with signs warning of Asbestos!!
