It leads to the historic village of Westgarthtown, which makes for an interesting day out.

Following the Path

The path is signed on the Western Ring Road Trail. Leaving the Western Ring Road Trail the trail immediately degenerates into a goat track beside the creek. Further to the north and about a 1km later, it returns to a decent concrete path.
