Walk Details

This path follows the shoreline of Lough Swilly between Buncrana and Stragill Strand and is a pleasant and easily acces- sible walk. The sea views accross Lough Swilly are particularly impressive.

Distance: Approximately 2.3 kms (one way) Time: 1 hour (there and back) Terrain: Tarmac path and sandy beach (at Stragill Strand). Grading: Easy and relatively level for the whole route, although access to Stragill Strand at its southern end requires crossing a rough area of large stones and boulders.
