    Tips

    October 8, 2017

    Bray is easy to reach by train from Dublin. From the train station to the start of the walk you can reach the beach boulevard with hotels, restaurants and a café within 15 minutes. The tour starts from the parking lot maybe 100 on the way down the stairs - and with a steep climb. Hiking shoes are recommended because of the following rocks. The descent will be slippery later. At the top you reach the big cross with the great views. Then the two ways left and right (something) are closed to the further course of the hike (end of 2017). Nobody seems to mind, as many hikers are on the way. We deviated from the way there to find an alternative. That was not a good idea. Remains on the ways? Better from the cross direction Greystone keep left on the way.

        Bray is easily accessible by train from Dublin, making it a convenient destination for a day trip. 🚆 From the train station, it's just a short 15-minute walk to reach the beach boulevard, where you'll find a variety of hotels, restaurants, and cafes to explore. ☕ The start of the walk begins from the parking lot, around 100 meters from the stairs leading down to the beach. Be sure to wear sturdy hiking shoes, as the trail involves some steep climbs and rocky terrain. ⛰️ Once at the top, you'll be rewarded with spectacular views from the big cross. However, be aware that some paths may be closed for maintenance, so it's best to stick to the marked routes. 🚧 Overall, Bray offers a picturesque setting for outdoor enthusiasts to enjoy a memorable hike along the coast.
