The climb up to the top is a bit hard, but in the end it is so worth it. If you spent a day in Bray I would recommend to schedule this in it. The reward for the climb will be the stunning views you'll have on the top.

Try the walk from Greystones, round Bray head - it literally is a little bit of heaven in the midst of a hectic world!

amazing view from the top of Bray Head. Worth going when the weather is good. Bray is a lovely place to go for a good walk and you can enjoy a pint and good food on the pubs and restaurants in the area.

Only takes about 40 minutes to climb and the view from the top of Dublin bay and further up to County Down and down to Wexford on a clear day is wonderful

This a lovely walk. If you enjoy a good walk this is for you. I would advise good walking shoes as the path can be quiet stoney! There is some lovely views and maybe photo ops as you walk it.
