Take a day trip to Howth and explore the south facing cliffs on a guided hike in spectacular areas of natural beauty. Hike across heathlands and blankets of wildflowers to the cliffs overlooking Dublin Bay, follow quiet coastal trails to secret beaches and hidden coves and discover the famous Martello Towers and Baily Lighthouse. Finally, ascend the cliff path to the Summit with its panoramic views before heading back down to the village.

Be ready for 10 kms to 15 kms (6 to 9 miles) in about 4 hours. We recommend cross trainers, boots or stout shoes and light weight long trousers to avoid nettle stings. Light waterproof, gloves, scarf and hat in a backpack may also be useful, depending on the weather. Bring along water and a snack to enjoy enroute.

Meet outside Bodega, Howth Market at 11 AM.
