(Subject to Option Inclusions)Itinerary
From the starting point in this remote village, the walk takes you out into the Atlantic Ocean with spectacular seascapes on all sides. We commence the walk by climbing the style that takes you over the sheep proof fence. A short climb gets your heart pumping and fills your lungs with wild Atlantic air. Some of the track is muddy but much of the very wet spots are crossed with a boardwalk. The Stags of Broadhaven can seen in the distance reminding us of the fact that they were formed almost 1.6 billion years ago. There are some great opportunities for fantastic photographs. Don't worry you will have plenty of time go get the shot that will remind you of a great day out.
Erris Head Loop Walk
The total distance for the walk is about 5km but there is plenty of time to stop and take in the variety of views of super seascapes on all sides. You will hear stories of tragedy and sadness along with stories of spectacular success from the region. Convivial conversation will help to pass the time as you admire the ever changing views.
The sheep and their cute lambs are a great photo opportunity while you hear how the ram 'covers' five sheep a day and loses 15% of his body weight in the process. The track levels out here and its a chance to catch your breath.
