The walk is all flat and is half on back roads, half on boreens and newly renovated walking tracks (renovated as part of the St. Declan’s Way upgrade for its inclusion as a waymarked National Trails Office (NTO) route). This walk is approximately 20 kms in length.

This is a led walk as way markings are not yet in place. It is the first section of St Declan’s Way to be de-vegetated in the re-establishment of this ancient route.
