Roscrea Trailblazers out and about

Roscrea Trailblazers are looking forward to a busy 2025 and always welcome new members

Get out and explore new places and make friends with the Roscrea Trail Blazers walking group - they are visiting Birr this week.

With the evenings closing in, its back to the Head torch and hiking in the dark and a great way to keep fit over the winter months.

Our walk last Thursday was a well-attended walk around the Brittas Lake Loop at Clonaslee. The weather on the night was perfect for walking with no rain and a cool breeze to keep everyone in check. Well done to everyone that made the effort.

Our Thursday night walk this week on the 10th October is a walk we have not done for a couple of months, The Birr Town Loop. Distance: 7 Km, Time: 1.5. Hours, Grade: Easy. Meeting at The Tesco Carpark at 7.30 pm. A nice flat walk and well worth the effort. Please bring a head/hand torch and Hi Viz jacket.

To join the group and to see what the club has to offer please follow the contact details below. If you would like to join us on any of our night walks or weekends away, you can contact Cathal on (086) 3399 193 and receive updates through WhatsApp. You will be made feel very welcome.
