    Hiking

    Horn Head cliffs rise straight out of the water to a height of about 600 ft/180 m on the ocean side of the peninsula. They are an internationally important colony for breeding seabirds. Species include the European shag and the razorbill. It is designated as an Irish Natural Heritage Area and as a refuge for fauna specifically seabirds. Horn Head cliffs are also designated a Special Protection Area and a Special Area of Conservation by the Irish government.

    Hiking

    From the nearby parking lot, there are hiking trails all the way to the top of Horn Head. You hike directly over the steep cliffs and enjoy an indescribably beautiful view.
