Another perfect day
Keep safe, keep well, keep walking.
Loughgall - anybody home?
27 November 2025
I think it's that way.
Outside the walled garden.
Drumilly House - early 20th Century.
Another perfect day for our short autumnal walk at Loughgall followed by fun and games in the playground.
Loughgall
Some craic at Loughgall while we waited on the rest of the walkers to find their way back.
Benburb
Benburb Priory was the familiar backdrop to one of Cedar’s walks. The paths through the forest were carpeted in autumn leaves, sometimes slippery. But walkers escaped any heavy rain, bar the odd enormous droplet falling from the trees! Lunch was enjoyed in the Stables Coffee Shop which perfectly finished off another great walk. Thanks to Ruth for leading.

Nine intrepid walkers climbed up alongside Yellow Water to an atmospheric Red Bog, taking a peek at the track leading up to Slievemeel (for another day) before returning to Yellow Water picnic area through Rostrevor Forest. 8.7Km and 290m ascent. Another perfect day.

06 November 2025
It was another perfect autumn day for walking along our traditional route from Helens Bay station, down the wooded Clandeboye Way followed by the Columban Way, past Helens Tower and the leadmines at Conlig to the Somme Centre. John ventured into the main concourse at Grand Central Station on the journey home to find a delightful piano competition underway.
