About the trail
This trail follows cliff top path and road, mostly minor, as it brings the walker along the beautiful Ballydavid coastline from Baile na nGall to An Ghlaise Bheag before returning by an inland route, passing the mast of RTE's Radio na Gaeltachta in Kerry, and offering spectacular views of Ceann Sibeal and the peaks of the Three Sisters across Smerwick Harbour / Cuan Ard na Caithne as well as great vistas of the surrounding landscape and towards Mount Brandon and neighbouring mountains.
