Make 2018 your year to get out walking

On Sunday, January 21, Josephine Tobin led the A walk, with nine starting out from the Nire Valley car park, up Coomlara, across to Coum Iarthair, down in gusty wind to lower lake, out to Gap and up to viewing point before descent to car park, about 10 miles in total.

Denise Laffan led the C Walk up east side of Knockastakeen in very wet and windy conditions, taking in views of Cush and semi snowcaps of Galtybeg and Galtymore. Weather improved and a lovely lunch was had by all at Lough Muskry and after enjoyed a gentle walk back through the forestry.
