Milltown to Marlay Park Walk

On Saturday 13th September we will have another walk, exploring several parks in the Rathfarnham area, each of which have their own character.

From the meeting point in Milltown Luas stop, we will talk along the River Dodder to Bushy Park and then we will walk to Rathfarnham Castle and then along to St Edna's Park and finally to Marlay Park. The walk is expected to be around 10km in length.

We will finish up at a bus stop so people can get home from there.

If people wanted to, we could have a picnic en route so feel free to bring snacks or other food. At the time of writing, the weather is expected to fine. We may finish the walk at a pub or café.

Feel free to come on the walk even if you haven't been to a meet up before. This is a great way to meet new people and see new places.

If you register to join our meet up walks you agree that you wish to take part in the activities knowing these risks.

Please wear boots, shoes or runners that you find comfortable, provide suitable support and have good grip as some of the paths may be uneven or steep. It is also recommended to bring water to avoid dehydration. Bring warm clothes and a waterproof jacket or umbrella in case of inclement weather. Feel free to bring walking poles if you wish.
