The Wee Binnian Walkers have launched their Annual Walking Festival. With a reputation firmly established for great sociability, combined with an ability to put together a challenging walking programme, the Wee Binnian Walking Festival attracts a large number of walkers from all over Ireland and further afield.
The festival has been much acclaimed for its balance of fabulous landscapes, friendly people and nightly entertainment. The programme offers guided mountain and lowland walks in the Mourne and Cooley Mountains with varying distances and difficulty catering from the novice to the most experienced hill-walker. The lower level Gap of the North History Trail and Smugglers Walk are firm favourites for those who enjoy a shorter walk full of history, folklore and great scenery. The Festival includes the infamous Blister Ball on the Saturday night.
The Wee Binnian Walkers take great pride in the fact that the Festival organised and funded through volunteer efforts. This year’s festival is based at the Killeavy Football Club, Newry from 11th to 13th September.
