Join Out & About Hikers for a spring walk up Slieve Roosley

Walk details:

Walk location: Slieve Roosley
Meeting location: Exchange Street Car Park Belfast or Leitrim Lodge
This is a good introduction to the Mournes and includes forest trails, quiet country lanes and the rolling hills of Roosley and Wee Roosley. While the hike is suitable for those with average fitness, some without previous experience of mountain hiking may find it a little challenging. The pace of the walk will ensure that the group stays together and no one is left behind.
Directions: We will leave at 10:00 am sharp from Exchange Street Car Park, Belfast. exchange street car park belfast – Search (bing.com). We will begin our walk at 11.00am sharp at Leitrim Lodge Carpark (Sandbank Rd, Newry BT34 5XX). Link to Leitrim Lodge Carpark: https://maps.app.goo.gl/uT1Q2LDz61KjXWuQA
