Car Park above Torc Waterfall

Roughly how far is this. I have often gone down to see the waterfall but cannot recall how far it is. I am going there soon with a friend who is not too good on the legs but can get around.

The thing I would be worried about is that the condition of the paths and expecially the steps can be very slippy when wet.

As BoomBoom said be very very careful on the steps if your friend isn't too stable. They can be very slippy.
