Whether you’re an ardent adventurer or a laid-back observer, a family or a singleton, a history buff, a nature addict, a geology fan, a spa devotee or a birdwatcher, Loop Head has something to offer you. On these pages you’ll find an outline of activities – guided and self-guided, energetic and tranquil, free and paid-for – to help you plan your visit to Loop Head.
