The way this church has been known has varied over time, starting with the name Tamhlacht Oirthear Arda, then Teampall Chadáin or St. Cadan's Church, and ending with the current name. The oldest remains date back to the 13th century, although there is also an ancient holy well, indicating that this place was a spiritual site before Christianity.

After your energy-consuming journey up this hill you'll definitely need a rest, so take a seat and take it all in before heading back to your starting point.

Great view of the Mussenden Temple. Make the most of it whilst you can, erosion is eating into the cliff meaning the temple will eventually fall into the sea.

Greencastles name originates from an ancient castle that was positioned on a rock overlooking the entrance of Lough Foyle. The harbour makes a perfect retreat for yachts travelling from Northern Ireland and Scotland due to its large and accessible harbour. However for those travelling via bicycle, this charming town makes a perfect spot to stop for a snack and a hot drink during your ride.

Go and see this unique building before it falls into the sea! Coastal erosion has brought the temple very close to the edge of the cliff.

At the northern tip of Ireland the shore is at odds with the restless Atlantic Ocean, receiving the full power of ocean swell and storms. From here you gain a fantastic viewpoint looking back to Shrove as well as down to the unspoilt hidden coves further along the coastline. Keep your eyes peeled for seals and dolphins!
