Like the famous phrase you can take this walk "By Hook or By Crooke", starting either at the historic Hook Lighthouse or the little village of Crooke, Co Waterford. The full route is 21km but fear not there are shorter routes for those who don't like quite so much of a challenge.

The walk takes you through 5 picturesque villages and many scenic viewpoints where you can view the peninsula and the estuary. Travel across the estuary on the Passage East Ferry, experience the beautiful Duncannon to Arthurstown walking trail and other special experiences. The walk also raises money for local causes.

Registration required, see Hike to the Hook website.
