Meet at Clontarf Road DART Station from 10.45am with departure @ 11am

Walk along Alfie Byrne Road to Eastpoint Business Park and then along the Tolka Estuary

Greenway. The walk from the DART station to the start of the greenway is approx. 1.4 km &

the greenway is around 3km long, so a total of 4.4 km one way. It is a linear walk with the

possibility of getting the 53 bus back from near the Circle K station, Dublin Ferryport to

Talbot Street in town. On a clear day this walk offers lovely views of the Tolka Estuary,

Clontarf coastline, Clontarf Sea Baths, Bull Wall, Howth Head, etc. It’s a flat walk with a

good surface so runners are fine.

Refreshments/ Toilet Stop: There is a Circle K station about half way along the greenway

which serves a good variety of both hot and cold food. It also has a large indoor seated area.

If the weather is good, feel free to bring your own refreshments as there’s lots of outdoor

seating on the greenway (with scenic views) near the Circle K. Also there are plenty of

coffee shops in Fairview upon return to Clontarf Road DART station.
