Description
So a very short route for us and it was used as a pre-breakfast run on holiday and as such we might have made the odd wrong turn.
The route goes from the centre of village out along the top of the cliffs , descending a couple of times to sea level. A really nice route on a sunny day and the climbs do make it feel worthwhile even for a short run.
Splendid views along the whole route and a great wee run.
