Barnaslingan Wood (The Scalp) is situated on the eastern slope of The Scalp (meaning crevice, chasm or cleft,) one of the most spectacular natural features in the Dublin area. This narrow rocky pass was formed by an Ice Age glacial lake overflow. There are many granite outcrops and boulders to be seen, especially on the wooded eastern Barnaslingan side.
