Benwee Head
There are other well trodden cliff-scape destinations in Ireland, and rightfully so as their beauty is widely known. But if you want those views all to yourself avoid the popular guide-book spots and make your way to the far northwest tip of Co. Mayo to Benwee Head and Carrowteige. The north and west facing cliffs of the North Mayo coast are just over an hours drive from Mount Falcon, part of an easy and rewarding day-trip from the estate. Whether it's a relaxed walk from the car park to the edge of a sheer faced cliff drop to the sea or a 4-hour elevation-busting cross-country hike this corner of Mayo has you covered.
