This is one half of the Bray Head Loop Walk linked with a loop walk within the Belmont Demesne where there is excellent cuisine available at Arthur's Barn (part of the set in the making of the King Arthur film) . It is worth noting that the trail within Belmont leads further to the Little Sugar Loaf, over it and onwards in the direction of Kilruddery Estate, from where it is possible to link up with the other half of the Bray Head Loop Walk (at the junction of R768 with R761) . On an earlier occasion, we did indeed take the Belmont-Little Sugar Loaf-Kilruddery trail, but the approach to Kilruddery seemed to be an "unapproved" section within these connected properties. Hence, I have not uploaded this alternative and very attractive loop, essentially a wider sweep of the Bray Head Loop Walk.
