“The walk will take you through heath and grasslands with butterflies orchids and hares. See Cooraghy pier and the breeding seabird stacks as you take a walk along the cliffs of Kebble to Bull Point - maybe even catching sight of the rare red-legged Chough feeding or at play! So don’t forget your binoculars.”
