Goleen Guided Walking Tour

Goleen Guided Walking Tour

This is a linear walk which means we have to drive to our starting point at the Goleen (a beautiful inlet at the end of the coast road drive).

We park here and trek our way from Goleen to the Diamond Rocks Café.

This is about 12 km and completely void of any inhabitants except for wildlife. We visit the ruins of Dunlickey castle, St Kee’s well and Bishops island on the way.

History, folklore and lots of tranquility. This trail has some spectacular and unspoilt scenery. We take in one of the Wild Atlantic signature posts on the way back to a well deserved coffee and cake @ the Diamond Rocks Café.
