Reviews of Clare Glens Loop
"Choice of 2km or 4km walks through forest. Some boggy sections where hiking boots are needed in winter. Great views of the river and waterfalls."
"Easy parking with beautiful scenery along the walk. Rough footwear is required if rain has fallen. The walk at you ease would be about an hour. Kids and dogs can definitely be brought here."
"Very nice walk around the river and many waterfalls. 2 options short and longer, both are very easy. Bring your camera with you, many scenic spots. Large car park and picnic area. Good place for even Sunday afternoon walk."
"A fantastic fairytale like woodland walk. The trail goingby the rocks near the bottom is way more fun than the actual easy walk above but the rocks down there can be slippery. Well worth a visit as part of a countryside day trip. Would go there early or late in the day to get less of sunlight burning out the photos"
