These access points are integral to the trail's design, ensuring that hikers can navigate the route while respecting the surrounding environment and farmland. It's important for visitors to use these designated crossings and avoid straying from the path to protect the delicate bog ecosystem and maintain good relations with local landowners.

Incredible Stone-Age park, with some technical trails. Massive mythological sacred stones worshipped over centuries, will follow you when adventuring into this unique geological and archaeological forest landscape.

"continual slur on Irish caving" It's actually only a few hundred metres is accessible and it's total length is thought to be 2km. No where near the longest cave in Ireland. Consider a trip in only if well equipped with a good light and helmet. Alternatively/also consider visiting McKenzies back lounge just down the road. A much drier watering hole. ;)
