Scilly Walk Kinsale

1.3 miles (2.1 km)

Open Streetmap The Scilly Walk offers a beautiful and easy coastal path with stunning views of the harbour and its historical landmarks. The walk is a popular and gentle stroll, perfect for all ages.
Starting from the town of Kinsale, the path follows the coastline eastward, leading you out of the town's centre. As you walk, you'll be treated to fantastic views of the harbour's busy waters, with its mix of fishing trawlers, sailing boats, and yachts.
The main highlight of the walk is the constant view of Charles Fort, a massive 17th-century star-shaped fort that sits on a headland overlooking the harbour entrance. From the Scilly Walk, you get a great vantage point to appreciate the scale and architectural design of this historic military fort.
The path is well-maintained and follows a low-lying cliff edge, which eventually leads to the entrance of Charles Fort itself. It is a fantastic walk for those looking for a mix of sea views, history, and a gentle pace
