Slieve Bloom May Walking Festival
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 28th year with a wide variety of walks.
The festival starts on Saturday May 3rd and finishes on Monday May 5th.
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. We have an A, B and C walks on both Saturday and Sunday.
Our Monday walk is a Grade A 13k and will take about 4 hours. The C and B walks are easy to moderate with a more strenuous A walk which is more suitable for the more experienced hiker.
Walk details are available on our website calenda. Festival weekend charge options are as follows: €8 per walk or €20 includes Festival and Annual subscription (individual) or €30 Festival and Annual subscription (Family)
