Slieve Bloom Eco Walks

Eco Walks draw the walker’s attention to flora, fauna and geology of the Slieve Bloom Mountains and enrich the experience for all those who love nature. Eco walks are located at Glenbarrow, Silver River at Cadamstown, Knockbarron Wood and Glenafelly (both near Kinnitty).

Walking Calendar

The Slieve Bloom Walking Club organise walks every weekend of the year. All of these walks are led by an experienced and friendly walk leader who is very familiar with the mountains. These walks are post to the Walking calendar weekly.
