This spectacular walk follows a quiet road, then track and path taking you to the top of the hill and passing the Castle, the great stone of Glanaclohy and behind it the house of George the Sky with Coomanore Lake further on, while magnificent views open up all around the West Cork coast including Bantry Bay as you climb.
