Details
Make sure to wear boots for walks B & C as the mountain brings rough terrain. And of course, bring your rain jackets, just in case.
While there is no charge for participation, donations will be gratefully accepted. All walks will raise funds for three great West Cork charities: Cancer Connect, Cork Arc, and Bantry Hospice.
