This is a really good walk with superb views of the Atlantic Ocean to the West and Smerwick Harbour to the East.

View SW from the Three Sisters to Sybil Head: Smerwick Harbour (L) and Atlantic (R)
There are sections where the exposure is severe/thrilling/a hoot (delete as appropriate) and I would recommend saving it for a day with great visibility and as windless a day as possible.
On the day in question, I had 35-45 kph winds and gusts from the SE which meant I kept dropping down into the fields from the cliffs at several points!

NOTE: ALL information such as Ascent, Length and Creator time taken etc should be regarded as approximate. The creator's comments are opinions and may not be accurate or still correct.
Your time to complete will depend on your speed plus break time and your mode of transport. For walkers: Naismith's rule, an approximate though often inaccurate estimate, suggests a time of 2h 52m + time stopped for breaks
NOTE: It is up to you to ensure that your route is appropriate for you and your party to follow bearing in mind all factors such as safety, weather conditions, experience and access permission.
