Kinnitty Looped Walks Trailhead

**Wellies are essential for this event to complete the looped walk**We will meet at the Kinnitty Looped Walks Trailhead at 10:30AM on Saturday the 16th of August 2025. From there, we will make our way on foot to Camcor-Forelacka Woodland reserve. A stunning example of an ancient native woodland, and a riparian native woodland at that! An extremely important fragment of Ireland's natural heritage. We'll walk underneath veteran canopies of hawthorn and hazel. We'll examine tufa spring formations and the various islets that are dotted along this wild stretch of the river Camcor - and so much more.Once we finish in our reserve we will make our way back to the carpark and finish our day with a picnic lunch, tea and coffee!We hope that you may join us, learn with us, and show your support for Ireland's natural heritage. This event is free to attend and open to families. Please note, we will be walking on uneven ground so this is not suitable for buggies.
