This is a 6.5km linear walk between Ballydehob and Kilcoe, which can be started at the Ballydehob Trailhead adjacent to the Community Centre, or at the Kilcoe Trailhead at Kilcoe R.C. Church. From Ballydehob Trail head, cross over the 12-Arch Bridge and head east following the Blue Arrows, take extreme care as you walk the side of the busy N71 for a short while before turning off at Skeaghanore cross.

At the Eastern end of this walk look out for directions sough to a 13th century Church ruins and Graveyard that allows spectacular views of Kilcoe Castle.
