Route Description<br />
To start this short walk, follow the path at the far<br />
(west) end of the car park over a footbridge and<br />
uphill where you then turn left. The walk passes<br />
through some beautiful woods, and then you<br />
soon turn left and follow the sign down to the<br />
Cockle House. Then, continue down to the<br />
riverbank and follow the path along its side.<br />
You soon reach a footbridge over the river to<br />
your left. Cross it and follow the path leading<br />
away from the river. This section of path leads<br />
to the Cidercourt Road. Turn right here, crossing<br />
Cidercourt Road almost immediately to join a<br />
public right of way leading to Main Street. Turn<br />
left onto Main Street and then left again onto<br />
Mill Road, and proceed back to the starting<br />
point. Please note: some steep sections.<br />
How to get there<br />
Crumlin Glen is signed off to the left on the<br />
