Free walking/cycling route from Dun Laoghaire to Killiney/Dalkey. Large slabs of granite from the old quarry were pulled by horses down this truck railroad for the construction of the east and west piers from 1817 until its completion in 1842. It has now been turned into a route for walkers and cyclists.
