Slieve Bloom Walking Festival
The 2020 Annual Walking Festival scheduled to take place this May Bank Holiday weekend has been postponed due to the restrictions in place re the Covid-19 outbreak.
The Slieve Bloom Walking Festival takes place in spring every year as the bluebells come into full bloom and the hills are alive with birdsong. This year the Slieve Bloom Walking Club celebrates it’s 26th year with a wide variety of walks. The festival offers a choice of woodland walks, riverside and gentle rolling hills with experienced walk leaders who will enhance your hike with stories of local history, geology and fauna. Having enjoyed the bonhomie of your fellow walkers during the day in the evenings enjoy entertainment in the local pubs and the festival BBQ in Kinnitty on Sunday afternoon. All are welcome. Festival Weekend walks €20 (includes annual membership) or €8.00 per walk.
