About this event

  • 5 hours 30 minutes

Join a group of fellow walkers on a hike from Bray to scenic Greystones! Follow the Camino runs regular walks all around Ireland to help people get fit, meet new walking buddies, and learn about the Camino de Santiago!

This is an excellent walk for anyone who is considering a walking holiday, like the Camino de Santiago. The distance and elevation that you'll cover are very similar to what a short day on the Camino would be like!

At 9:30am, we’ll meet at Sea Life Aquarium in Bray. We will then set off at 9:45am sharp.

This is a medium-to-challenging day out and a variation on the famous Bray to Greystones Cliff Walk. We will be walking on footpaths in the towns but will use trails to go up the Little Sugar Loaf (394m ascension). There will be some track and scree walking too, on and off the hill.

Book your place today for €12 which goes entirely to our partner charities, in this case Gary Kelly Cancer Support Centre.
