Breen Oakwood and Moyle Way Trail Description
If you are looking for a bit of variety on your walk in terms of terrain, then you should definitely explore the Breen Oakwood and Moyle Way Trail. This fun route will see you traverse a nice mixture of surfaced trails, forest pathways, and boggy landscape, while offering views of the surrounding woodlands and hillside.
Setting out from the trailhead, you will head to the southeast along the road as it passes in between to sections of forest. After following the trail around the edge of the wood, you will cross over a stream and begin making your way up the steep forested hillside.
As you loop through the area, you will pass through beautiful mature trees and swathes of open bog that will open up the views to include the surrounding area. Reaching the southwesternmost point of the route, you will turn to the north and follow the path downhill, once again making your way through the forest on the return to the trailhead where you started.
