Starts Wed 12th Oct 2022 at 14:00
Ends at 17:00
Cost FREE
Max 30 attendees
Type IN-PERSON Event

Location: Croaghmoyle

Our first hike of the year!

With wonderful views of Nephin and the Nephin Begs, Croaghmoyle offers a great opportunity for you to get out and experience what Co.Mayo has to offer.

It is a beginner friendly route, with a paved surface making it incredibly accessible for all. It is a gentle climb of 330m over 4.6km to a viewpoint of 430m, taking just over an hour to reach the summit. 


It is recommended that everyone brings their own rucksack containing the following:

· Multiple warm layers (It may be windy or a bit wet so having multiple layers to keep warm will be very helpful)

· Appropriate footwear (Paved surface so runners are fine, boots are still recommended if owned)

· Waterproof jacket and pants

· Headtorch (if you have one, not essential as plan is to be back before dark)

· Water

· Sun-cream (winter sun is more dangerous)

· Hot drink + food/snack


The bus is leaving from the front of the college (outside reception) at 2pm (only a 15 minute drive), and plan is to be back at 5pm. 


Spaces are limited so be sure to book your place on ATU SULife!

Hope to see as many of you as possible on Wednesday, Thanks!
