This is an EASY HILLWALK – NOT A RAMBLE
Leader’s Note:
Bray Head offers a delightful and varied walk. This is a very pleasant 11km walk starting off in Greystones along the Coastal Cliff Path as far as Windgates, then up to Bray Head Summit (240m) and then over to the Cross and dwon onto Bray seafront. Walking poles could be useful for the short steep stretch down from the Cross.
We will meet at Skerries Train Station to catch the 08.53 train to Connolly, then the 09.35 Rosslare Europort train from Pl. 5 to Greystones arriving at 10.31. A coffee & scone in Insomnia before we head off on the walk. Refreshments and lunch then at the end of the walk in The Martello on Bray seafront for those who want to relax after it.
For anyone driving – there is plenty of parking on the seafront over the level crossing at the train station in Bray and then turning left to a large car park on the right before catching the train at 10.20 a.m. to Greystones.
