Parks & Nature

Astonishing views and relaxing walk only a few minutes from Dublin City Centre. From Raheny you can go to Howth either by bus (20 minutes) or DART (10 minutes). Starting at the DART (train) station in Howth village and following green arrows this walk takes the path along the cliffs climbing to ‘The Summit’ and returning along a path parallel to the outward route. The views of Lambay Island and Ireland’s Eye as well as Dublin Bay are spectacular. The cliffs are great for birds and grey seals may also be seen.
