Stage 4 of the Daniel O'Connell (Dublin) to Fr Matthew (Cork) Walk


Details
We are making slow progress on the Daniel O'Connell to Fr Matthew walk but hope that if we get beyond Glendalough, progress will be more rapid.
I have also tried to set out below the plan of walks we have for the year ahead. Dates have been fixed to December. We will finalize arrangements for 2014 in December.
Let's hope we get off to a good start for the new season. A one-day walk may be a good starting point for new members.
