All walkers to meet at the Gap O’ the North pub Jonesboro’ for 10 am and we will car pool before driving to our starting point.( Please note this is not our regular parking spot) As this will be a linear walk we will need cars at both ends so we ask everyone to be on time so that we can get this sorted and away promptly.
The forecast isn’t great for Sunday, (although this might change as we get closer to the day), so please ensure you have a water/wind proof jacket. All walkers must be wearing walking boots, walking poles are recommended but not essential, bring a packed lunch.
Expect to be out for around 4 hours, a reasonable level of fitness is needed for further information check out the FAQ section of our web page for fitness and kit requirements. New walkers are always welcome, your first walk with us is free, if you enjoy the craic… and the walk…then membership is £20 for the year.
Our leaders on the day will decide on the number of groups going out, as we are in holiday season many of our regular walkers are away and we may walk as one group, depending on numbers.
A reminder to all members re: the Away Trip- Mweelrea, if you are interested Sunday is your last chance to register your interest with a deposit.
