Hi. I've started a meetup group that takes people hiking & camping round NI and I hope you don't mind but I've added a link to this forum on the homepage. If there's any concerns please let me know and I'll remove it. Cheers!

How about about a Christmas hike instead ,will still give us a chance to catch up with old friends and meet some new. Maybe a wee walk up the Annalong Valley and take in the caves at Percy Bysshe & Cove for a bit of craic, followed by a good feed at Carrick Little Cottage. I'll throw this out there and say Sunday 22nd December meeting at Carrick Little car park at 11am.

That's a fine idea Liam.  I think I am busy that day with family stuff but I'm checking if my wife to see if I will give me a pass out!  I'm working on it!

Hopefully there will no one next year with any luck.

Have you checked out my videos on the last 2 Christmas camps (in snow and in rain)?  Great craic, great food, great people, great camps......hopefully they will happen again!

Wow? Kind of jealous to be honest have never done a hammock camp! Been wild camping over England and Scotland years ago have hardly been out at all in Northern Ireland/Ireland.

It was my first hammock camp as I am usually a tent dweller!!  Annalong wood as good trees for the hammocks, we were meant to go back last Saturday night and repeat but the trip fell apart a few days before as others were too busy.  Thanks
