Did the Maulin section of the North Kerry Way as a short 4hr loop up from Ballyheigue beach in August 2020. Although it was a dry day, it had rained on and off in the previous week, so the trail on the north side of the hill was basically a riverbed. Recommend taking the lower cliff road instead of Ballylonglane for better views and a detour to the little pier along the way.

Way marked for the entire trail. A little muddy underfoot. Fabulous views.
