Sightseeing
The waterfall is just fantastic and on a rainy day, the volume of water cascading seems to treble. Just beyond the waterfall are the Maghera caves situated on Maghera Strand which is beautiful, huge, deserted and made from fine white sand. This waterfall is not to far off the R263 near Maghera as your headed towards the beach. The amount of water thundering down the mountainside after rainfall is amazing. After seeing this waterfall you can continue up the road so you can see the caves in the cliffs at the beach.

The Glengesh Pass is a windy section of the road that connects Glencolmcille to Ardara. During the drive, motorists can enjoy the farmland, desolate moorland, and tranquil setting. Glengesh (Glen of the Swans) Pass (900 feet above sea level) meanders through the Glengesh and Mulmosog Mountains. The scenery in the area is magnificent. There is a feeling of peace and stepping back in time.
