The route is designated as a 'National Waymarked Trail' by the National Trails Office and is managed by North Kerry Walks Limited.

The route

The trail follows the coastline of Tralee Bay, beginning at Tralee and following the towpath of the Tralee Ship Canal to Blennerville and then along the coast to the village of Spa.[2] It then crosses Banna Strand to reach Ballyheigue where a looped trail brings the route around Kerry Head and back to Ballyheigue.[2]
