Roscrea’s very popular hiking club will support an Offaly charity

Now that we are finally getting our longer evenings, Roscrea Trail Blazers are back to some walks they couldn't do during the winter months and exploring what Ireland has to offer.

The very popular Roscrea hiking club always welcome new members and have an event planned in support of an Offaly charity.

Last Friday they had a very well attended walk around the Silver River Loop in Cadamstown and the Slieve Bloom mountains.

Despite a poor weather forecast the group made great progress under a very wet evening the group had a lovely walk - well done to everyone that made the effort.

The charity walk this year will be in aid of the Offaly Branch of Alzheimer's Ireland with a BBQ on Sunday June 21st.

This Friday night June 12th they plan to visit the Abbeyleix Bog Loop. Distance: 6.5 km, Grade: Easy flat walking, Time: 1.45 hours. Meeting at Abbeyleix Trail Head Carpark at 7pm.
