We started the hike by going through the metal gate beside the car park. We then walked through a flat meadowy field until we met a sign turning us left and across a timber sty.
If you plan to bring kids on this hike, be warned there is a very sharp edge to the top section of the trail. We advise bringing straps (reins) for kids between 3-5, just to be on the safe side. Try to keep younger kids in their hiking bags for this section. This section with steep edges isn’t long, it’s only about 150 meters.
When we reached the caves, we were amazed at the outstanding views and the spectacular sunset that we were greeted with. We were truly lucky with our timing when we visited. The kids loved exploring and were totally amazed at the size of them. It was great fun and one of the highlights of our Sligo holiday.
Below is a map of the start point to walk the Kesh caves and the location of the new car park. The new car park can cater for 20+ cars. When we visited, the new car park was being constructed.
