North Leitrim Glens Hill Walking Festival Easter 2022
Two day hill walking festival in the magical Glencar Valley, Leitrim, Easter 2022
About this event
We are delighted to welcome you back to our Easter 2022 two day hill walking festival in the Leitrim hills on April 16th & 17th , 2022!
As numbers will be capped at 100 per day, with 50 on each walk on both Saturday and Sunday to meet hill safety requirements and bus capacity, it is important that you select the walk most appropriate to your degree of fitness. We therefore encourage you to book online as early as possible to secure your place, as registration is online in advance only this year.
The Saturday Medium & Long Walks are now both SOLD OUT.
There are plenty of places still left on the Sunday Walks & Ramble.
In line with public health recommendations, mask wearing is advised when travelling on the bus at the event.
The stunning scenery in Leitrim and surrounding counties make it an ideal location for dedicated hill walkers and ramblers and those who come to the festival get smitten by the Leitrim bug and come back time and time again. Lovely Laid Back Leitrim grabs a lot of hearts!
At the heart of our events is good old fashioned hospitality. Leitrim, with low population density and small tourist traffic gives visitors a genuine experience and the pristine landscape leads to wonderful wild walking and fantastic local food.
There will be complimentary tea, coffee and scones at registration both mornings and soup after the walks on Sunday at Glencar teaSHED.
There will be a separate meal on Saturday evening at Osta, W8, Manorhamilon. Tickets for the meal at €22.20, inclusive of €2.20 booking fee, are in addition to the walking fees, and are available to purchase online - two courses, including salads and dessert. Tea, coffee and other drinks from Osta are an additional cost.
There is also fantastic music on Saturday night, 8pm, in The Glens Centre, Manorhamilton with Eleanor Shanley and John Feeley, and tickets may be purchased directly from The Glens Centre.
