Bray Head

We can meet at Bray Dart station at 12 o'clock and walk the Bray Head Loop. There is a Dart due at 12 o'clock so we will start five minutes after it's arrival.

We will follow the promenade up towards the hill. The real climb begins at the steps; from here there is a well-worn path straight up to the cross. The path will bring you up through trees and on a dirt path. Be prepared for a bit of a scramble up rocks at the top. The path can get quite mucky when it rains so dress appropriately.

At the top of Bray Head, there is a stone cross where you will get a magnificent panoramic vista of Bray, North East Wicklow and Dublin Bay. You can also see some of Bray Head’s neighbouring mountains, the Great and Little Sugar Loaf and Carrickgollogan, locally known as Kathy Gallagher.

We will then extend the walk by following the path to the South. This will bring us on a walk parallel to the Cliff Walk below, and bring you towards Greystones. The path will veer off to the right and follow it to come out at Windgates on the Bray to Greystones Road and then back to Bray. We can then go for lunch/coffee. I won't book anywhere as this will be optional for those who attend.

I am not an expert or professional so anybody attending this walk is responsible for your own safety and belongings
