Moderate 6km walking trail at the junction of two long-distance trails – the Bangor Trail and the Western Way. The trail follows the riverbank, tracks and forest roads in the lowlands of the Nephin Mountains.
The loop follows blue arrows on old cattle road, firebreak, sandy road, forest road and riverbank, mainly in forestry. It travels in a clockwise direction with some climbing and some descent looping around the southern slopes of a hill in the scenic and relatively isolated lowlands of the Nephin Beg Mountains.
