This trail starts at the arboretum in the village of Broadford. This was formally a limestone quarry now planted with native Irish trees and shrubs. It follows a minor road with farmland on both sides. There are some stunning views on your descent down through a working farm, crossing through fields and wooded areas. The trail brings you to the historical site of Killagholehane Church. The walk ends back in the village of Broadford.
