Beautiful views over Dublin City and Bay. There is also the Lead Mine Walk that is within a 3 min walk from the starting point of the Scalp. We did both walks within a couple of hours. Parking is pretty good. This was a great forest walk. Beautiful views over Dublin City and Bay. There is also the Lead Mine Walk that is within a 3 min walk from the starting point of the Scalp.

The "scramble" near the top was not apparent to us. We're in our 50s and of average health. The signage is not helpful at all as the coloured markers are the wrong colour! Boring. [I suspect you took the wrong route. You need to head downhill through the woods to the road, then along the road to find the scramble back up. If you just follow the markers, you'll stay at the top of the hill and not have any climb. -- admin] This walk took me and my wife less than 30 mins and was not very demanding.
