Very nice walk between the cliff and the fishing port. You can see Dunmore East from there and most importantly the Hook Lighthouse in County Welford. Beautiful views from the cliff walk, even in the rain. Will definitely do that again.
Dunmore East was our very first cruise port stop. Originally the idea was to take a bus or taxi to Waterford where the majority of the cruise passengers were heading. My sister and I were quick to decide that Dunmore East was where we wanted to carouse. Right off the dock area was Dunmore East's Coastal Cliff Walk. We probably only did about a quarter of the trail and though I wish we had more time to walk to the end, the amount of the trail we did complete was absolutely breathtaking. I would not have traded the experience we had on this hike. The photos do not do this hike justice. I left part of my heart in the first cove we came across called Portally Cove Beach. We stayed in this cove for quite some time, conversing with some of the locals, looking for sea glass, which we were lucky enough to find and just basking in the pure radiance and beauty of this location.
Lovely walk with some great views of the dramatic cliff faces along the way. Can get quite mucky at times so would recommend good set of boots! The car park has lots of spaces.
Very nice walk along the cliffs, great views and some lovely coves to come across. A few benches along the route so you can sit and admire the view. Can be muddy in parts so maybe wear hiking boots. Just a pity that some people think that their dogs don't need to be on a lead.
A fantastic cliff top walk that is well maintained & easily accessible by most. Unfortunately wheelchair access is not possible due to the steps at the beginning & the somewhat uneven terrain throughout. Amazing views of the Waterford coastline & a great way to spend a few hours being active.
