To support advertising, 36,000 euros were awarded from ORIS funding, which will be used to produce 10 promotional videos showcasing walking trails across the region, with one in Aherlow included.
The target group will be motorcycle tourists, mostly male riders aged 45 or older, who are adventure-focused and travel in small groups. An action plan will follow in Q2 of 2026 with actions for Munster Vales to take to promote the area to this target market.
A new website will also be launched in Q4 of 2026 with a brand-new layout and functionality. Munster Vales will also appear on the new series of At Your Service to talk about the group and what they offer.
