SANDYMOUNT STRAND TO POOLBEG LIGHTHOUSE

Wednesday 12 March 2025

This is a flat coastal walk on paths and defined track of 2 1/2 to 3 hours duration.

Weather appropriate attire and walking shoes/boots recommended at this time of

year. The walk starts from Sandymount Strand, out through Irishtown Nature Park,

passing the iconic ‘candy sticks’ of the Pigeon House power station, out the South

Bull to the distinctive red Poolbeg Light House and returning by the same route.

The meeting point is the last of the 3 car parks on Strand Road (heading towards the

city), 150 metres north of Martello Tower, at 10.45 for 11.00 am start. This is a ‘pay

and display’ carpark. Some free parking available on Strand Road, or nearby

Guildford Avenue off Strand Road.

Sydney Parade Dart Station is an 8 min. walk from meeting point.

Bring a snack and drink if desired but plenty of places for coffee/ lunch in

Sandymount village after the walk.

This walk will be led by Katherine Bonner 0877469310.

Looking forward to a good walk in hopefully fair weather.
