The Children of Lir Loop Walk

SCENES from IRELAND

A dull day, BUT A GREAT WALK, which starts from Ceathru Thaidhg (Carrowteige) where there is plenty of parking space. There is also an information board on the Children of Lir Walk and marker posts too. Its a great bracing coastal walk with good sea and cliff views.
