The Arklow Rock Cliff Walk was set up by the current quarry operators to allow walkers to safely visit and view the area. The quarry mines the blue basalt and speckled grey granite rocks that formed as part of the Arklow Rock volcanic event. The walk loops the quarry, offering great views out to sea, of the rocks and the working quarry.
