May Weekend Spiritual Walk

Spiritual Walk from Irish National War Memorial Park along the river Liffey to Chapelizod, on Monday, 4th May at 2pm.

Our Route
We will start at the Memorial Gardens car park and set off through the gardens, then along the riverbank. The last third of the walk will be on footpaths into Chapelizod village, where we may get a coffee and a snack if you’re hungry. We’ll then return via a similar route and enjoy some of the features around the gardens as we find our way back to where we started from.
See the map in the Photos section for more details.

How to get there
If you are coming from the city centre, the easiest option would be the bus routes, C1, C2, C3, C4, G1, G2, 52, 60, and 69. Get off the bus on the South Circular Road, near the Liffey. We’ll be meeting in the Memorial Gardens car park, which is close to the South Circular Road entrances. If you’re driving, there are two entrances off the South Circular which you can take into the car park.

The walk
The walk is easy and pretty straightforward along the banks of the Liffey. Suitable for all ages and all fitness levels. Dogs are very welcome.
While walking we will try to be present in the moment, be mindful of our thoughts, observe what is presented to us and what comes into our awareness.
We'd love to hear your stories and any insights you’d like to share.

Food
There are a few restaurants and cafes in Chapelizod where we will likely find something to quell your thirst and hunger. You’re also welcome to bring food with you for a picnic.
