Oxford Island

Some pics from a great walk at Oxford Island, home to some rare butterflies.

The Birds

Hebie led his party from Hen Track to two of the Birds - Hen and Cock. Another perfect day.

Ballymoyer Wood

Some more pics of our "historic" day out - a smorgasbord of delighful short walks in beautiful settings.

Dundrum

Mark and Peter stroll along Ardilea Road during our walk at Dundrum.

Banns Road

Great walk of over 10Km with some stunning views.

Leitrim Lodge

Another perfect day for walking at Leitrim Lodge with no rain.

Oxford Island

Another perfect day for walking with no rain until we were safely tucking in to coffee and scones at Lough Neagh Discovery Centre.

Tollymore

Dorothy and chums had an enjoyable, if rather damp, day out at Tollymore.

Binnian

John O. led a small group on a successful and enjoyable ascent of Binnian.

Ruth led three very special walks. First, to Ballymoyer Wood where we had a sheltered 4.2Km walk along the Creggan River, then to Glenanne where we had a short walk along the glen and lunch in the community garden. In the afternoon we visited historic Derrymore House where we had a lovely 2Km walk round the grounds, including a visit to the Quaker Meeting House. After that, most of us went on to the nearby Bernish viewpoint and Ballymacdermott Court Tomb. A great day was had by all. In the imortal words of Van Morrison: "Mama always told me there'd be days like this."

Slieve Foye

Mike led a small group of intrepid walkers to the summit of Slieve Foye and along the Cooley ridge. Despite the blustery conditions, it was another great day in the hills with beautiful views.

Blue Lough and Cove

Herbie led a great walk to the Blue Lough and Cove Cave. Special thanks from Dorothy for making her Aussie family welcome - "it's a great group".
