Beginner Hill Walking Courses/ Club Walks and more...

Well its been a busy period for Walkabout Wicklow over the past few months, and as a result the blog has suffered from not being updated. So now I will attempt to put all of the recent pictures up together so you can enjoy them. So in no particular order - a mixture of club and course pics.

So this is the top of Scarr with our Teachers Club Walking course and some of our club members. What an amazing day to go hillwalking - sunshine all day!!!


 
Taking it easy and enjoying a well earned lunch break on the top of Scarr Mountain. After Maria's insistance!!!




And one more shot just to make sure we got it right. 

 




 
 Below is the top of Maulin - testing our compass bearings. Luckily they worked, so we live hillwalk another day. Well done to the Rathmines Course.



And now the club. This was one was taken from our Bray to Greystones evening summer stroll - prior to the few drinks in the pub!




And this one was from the top of Mullacleevaughan. A magnificent walk for all of the club members - well done guys!!!! After some serious bog stomping we were rewarded with some fairly stunning views.



And lastly - from the knife edge of Derrybawn. Another stunning walk. Starting with the meander through the forest, and finishing with amazing views of the Glenmalure and Glendalough Valleys. I think we shall do this one again in the future (You can actually see scarr in the background).
So well done to everybody and I hope to see you all out on the hills again soon. Dont forget the Club walk this Saturday. Prepare to be impressed with the views. Walkabout Wicklow!
