Explore Brittas Lake in the Slieve Blooms with Roscrea Trailblazers

Join Roscrea Trailblazers at Mount St. Joseph's

Roscrea Trailblazers on a portion of the Greenway Walk

Now that the long evenings are here we can look forward to some fantastic walks.

Last Thursday night we had a well attended  walk on the Knockbarron Loop outside Kinnity. It was great to see the trail upgrade done to the area in the last few weeks. Both this walk and last weeks walk around Golden Grove woods were led by local man, Martin Ryan, well done Martin for taking such good care of everyone.  

Our walk this Thursday night the 17th August is the Brittas Lake Loop at Clonaslee in the Slieve Blooms. A fantastic woodland walk and one not to be missed. Distance : 6.5 km, Grade: Moderate , Time: 1.5 hours. Meeting at The Brittas Lake Trailhead at 7pm. 

The best of luck to our club members who are climbing Snowdon in Wales at the weekend. Our next Greenway walk will be the Eight and final section of The Grand Canal GreenWay on Sunday the 10th August from Pollagh Village to Shannon Harbour a distance of 19km. details to follow. 

If you would like to join the group on any of their future walks you can contact Cathal on (086) 3399193 with an expression of interest or join our WhatsApp group.
