Fairy Pools Guides - The Walk, the Parking, the Water
How long the walk really takes, what the car park costs, whether you can swim, and how to reach Glenbrittle without a car.

About 2.4km return to the first pool, forty minutes to ninety, on ground that is usually wet. Parking is charged by the estate. Entry is free.
