About
This 4km / 2.5 mile long waymarked trail starts and finishes at the Errigal Bridge entrance to Errigal Glen on Temple Road approx. 3 miles south west of Garvagh.
The route follows the fast flowing Agivey River through the steep-sided and well-wooded Glen. For safety reasons, please keep to the waymarked track through the Glen.
Having passed Ballintemple House, situated across fields on your left, exit the Glen on to Churchtown Road, turn left and proceed with care along this road. Please adhere to normal Highway Code rules for walking along a road. On reaching the junction at Ballintemple, turn right on to Ballyrogan Road, observing the ancient remains of Errigal Old Church and souterrain on the left. Proceed along this road and turn left on to Gortnamoyagh Road before entering Gortnamoyagh Forest on the left. Within the forest section it is possible to visit the inauguration stone known locally as the Saint’s Track or Shane’s Leap. From the forest the route passes through deciduous woodland, picking up the remnants of an old laneway to join Churchtown Road. Turn right and then left at the next junction on to Glen Road returning to the starting point at Errigal Bridge.
