Simple walk, stunning walk

by Colin Murphy 7 Aug 2019

This hill is the highest point on the Loop Head peninsula and can be accessed via the Dunlicky Road about 4km south from Kilkee. Park at quarry entrance located at Q8532058397 star

A and proceed up the hill to the SE for about 600m to the trig pillar at the summit. A much more enjoyable way to bag the summit is to take the Kilkee Cliff walk, starting at the Diamond Rocks Cafe, past the statue of Richard Harris and continue along the track to the highest point of the cliff, where the track rejoins the road. The views of the coastline along the track are tremendous. A further 2km walk along the road will take you to the quarry entrance. Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/1361/comment/20598/
