[FREE] Adventerous walk - Bushy Park exploration & Picnic! 🌳
Bushy Park, bushy park, terenure, Dublin, Dublin, IEThe perfect way to spend a Saturday? Active walk, socialising & Saturday Market!
In May we are bringing you a Saturday morning filled with fresh air, local exploration, and genuine connection.
This time we’re heading south to explore the hidden corners of Bushy Park and the banks of the River Dodder.
📍 Where we meet:
We’re gathering at the entrance close to the Bushy Park House at 11:00 AM. We’ll hang around until 11:15 to make sure everyone finds us! Your hosts Maja, Norbert & Stephen will be there to welcome you (a visual guide will be sent to your inbox a day before the walk!).***
🥾 The Journey:
We’ve curated a route that ensures we won't take the same path twice! Expect a "leisure stroll" pace—this isn't a race; it's about being present.- The Route: A 6km loop starting at the Bushy Park House bus stop. It’s mostly flat with a few steps along the way.
- The Twist: We’ve prepared a small Treasure Hunt for you to keep your eyes peeled and your mind engaged! 🏴☠️📦
- The Destination: We’ll finish up at the vibrant Saturday Food Market. It's the perfect spot to grab some lunch or an ice cream and continue the chat! 🍦
***
✨ The Quality Time Vibe:
At Quality Time, we trade distractions for something more fulfilling.- Silent Time: We’ll enjoy 15–25 minutes of intentional silence at a stunning viewpoint to connect with nature.
- Genuine Connection: A chance to meet like-minded people who value being present (we will help!)
- Great Memories: No phone-checking, but feel free to bring your "normal" camera to capture the greenery! 📷
***
🕰️ The Schedule:
- 11:00 – 11:15 | Meet-up at Bushy Park House bus stop.
- 11:15 – 14:00 | The Walk & Treasure Hunt: Connection with others & nature.
- 14:00 | Arrival at the market for soft goodbyes (or optional social lunch!).

🐥 What to bring:
- 👟 Comfortable Shoes: It’s a 6km stroll, so treat your feet well!
- 🌦️ Layers & Rain Gear: It’s Ireland—let’s be prepared for all four seasons in one morning.
- 💧 Water & Snacks: Keep your energy up as we explore.
- 🦮 Pets: More than welcome! (Please keep them on a lead and bring bags 💩).
- 💛 Yourself: Just as you are. No "content" needed, just your presence.
***
🎟️ Tickets & Community Support:
This walk is donation-based. We believe that intentional, offline time should be accessible to everyone. If you’d like to support our mission and help us continue organising these curated community events, any contribution is warmly welcomed! 💛
You can donate on Luma (also, sign up to our membership!)
