"A Drive Around a Dramatic Headland This short 13km drive is worth taking for the panoramic views of the northwest coast, stretching from the Rosguill Peninsula to the Bloody Foreland, and out to Tory Island to the north. There’s plenty of seabird life on the cliff ledges, with puffins, storm petrels, gulls and guillemots. When you get to the tip of Horn Head, walk to the viewpoint at Faugher, for views of the cliffs and the ruins of a signal tower from the 17th century."

It is an amazing place that you can practically drive right up to. Small trek, and you have spectacular views. It's very windy, so hold onto anything you have that's important to you.

Dramatic sea views with relatively easy access

Great place to visit, but be aware that the road up is narrow and at the top there is limited room for parking. In saying that I had no problem getting there and staying the night in my camper van. The views are magnificent with 360° panaramic views plus there are some old ruins and Clift top walks. Excellent place.

Surely a highlight on this trip. Astounding cliffs and views. At this time of the year there is almost nobody up there so if you manage to walk over to the ruine (which is just a 20min walk from the car park) it will feel almost magical and spiritual, at least it was to me

Horn Head is definitely worth exploring. It's a beautiful drive up. The views are stunning. It's completely untouched and it is Ireland at its finest. Try and go on a sunny or dry day to avoid fog. Really beautiful. You can follow road signs, park your car and it's about a 10min walk up.

Amazing walk. Used to come here as a child but never appreciated the amazing cliffs until a recent visit. Not well known so rarely many people about. We went on a cloudy day and still felt like we were at the edge of the earth.
