This walk follows the old mass path along the banks of the Ilen River before joining a quiet road leading to Ahanafunsion bridge amenity area, passing cascades, cliffs, patchwork field systems, a huge river bend in the form of an ox bow and some archaeological features with possibly the sight of a dipper or otter and other wildlife.
