Today’s ramble finds us in the Rosses, a cloudless Errigal is the majestic backdrop and the clear green waters of a cove in Mullaghderg beach is the destination. The large sandy beach has dangerous rip tides and is not safe for swimming. However, around the corner, and at high tide, there is a little inlet which turns into the perfect lagoon for adults to swim. No beach or sand to faff about with - it’s off the rocks and straight into cold clean green salty water. There are thousands of pebbles along the water line, dappled and speckled and marbled in a myriad of colour, and as smooth as orbs. Wild purple orchids and harebells are poking out of the grasses, and we met a gold & black caterpillar having a nap- this little grub will become the beautiful red and black cinnabar moth, proving that there is hope for us all
Enjoy the ramble
