Camden Fort Meagher is open to visitors for the summer season from April each year. A coastal defence was originally built here in the 16th century, but the buildings you can see today are from the 1860s. It was operated by the British Armed Forces until 1938 when it was passed to the Irish Defence Forces and was in use until 1989. The fort fell into disrepair but a group of local people restored the buildings so it could be opened to the public.

Hiking

Open from April to October according to the website.
Outside of these months it's not much of a highlight because you can hardly see anything 🤷
