Cliff walk in bad weather

Knit wit

Hi,
Is the cliff walk safe in bad weather? Hoping to go Saturday with a group in spite of the rain/wind. Thanks

There's a waist high wall to your left for the first third coming from Bray, I've always felt that to be quite a sheltered stretch. After that, at a point where you first see Greystones in the distance, a fence that consists of three horizontal wires between concrete posts continues around a bend or two. On very, very windy days I often turn back at that section(but only because I never walk the whole lot anyway, so i gotta turn back somewhere) as the wind howls through there much stronger but saying that it would probably still be safe enough to continue with caution in all but the strongest gales.

Soon enough again you are sheltered in by hedges and shortly thereafter it takes a step inland a bit where it should be fine.

At no point is there zero barrier to the side, where you could just slip off. Rain wouldn't affect much at all except how mucky your footwear will get.

I wouldn't walk it in a hurricane or gale but most other times you'd be safe to start out & just turn back if it got too much. You could always make the climb up to the top path if you're nervous, it'll probably feel even more windy in places but there's nowhere for it to blow you except back on your backside.
