beginner walks

Conditions around Darragh where the beginner walk is scheduled for are very icy. The road is impassable, with cars getting stuck in the ice. I would advise people not to travel in this area tomorrow, 28th Dec. The area around the bridge and creamery is under several inches of solid ice and completely unwalkable. Other roads leading to this point are in a similar condition.
Further beginner walks are scheduled for the new year. Please see the calendar for details.
