This will take place during the full moon in November, and will incorporate a 26km hike mostly along the Wicklow Way. Participants take part as a team - although more experienced challengers may decide to run or go solo, or both!

There is a registration fee of €25.00 per person and a minimum fundraising target of €75.00 per person. All funds raised will go directly to building the Mountain Rescue Base.

it would be an amazing walk if there were clear skies, I have something on that date but if there was an ni-wild team going i might be able to reschedule things  ;)

Would be a hell of a trip. 350miles there and back with 26k of walking.
