Thanks to everyone who attended the recent launch of the Sligo Walks website, video & Annie West-illustrated maps. A special thanks also to those who spoke at the event, especially the people representing the local community walking groups in Sligo.
The good news is that we plan to bring any news relating to walking in Sligo to you on a weekly basis. This will include news on upcoming walks, tips on staying healthy, what kind of gear you will need to buy if you are starting out, and more.
In addition, we’ve partnered with the Sligo Champion to produce a trail walkers news slot, which will appear weekly in the newspaper. if you are part of a walking group and want your events or walks promoted, or if you are looking for new members, or if you are just someone who wants to get to walk in the company of others, feel free to drop us a line to news@sligowalks.ie.
Consider it your walking notice board, and it’s completely FREE. Our aim is to get as many people out and about enjoying the countryside and the fresh air, and this is especially important now that we are getting into shorter days and longer nights, it’s much more important for our physical as well as mental health to stay active, get some fresh air and to enjoy the walks that surround us.
Check out the Sligo Champion from next Tuesday 10th October where we will have our first article, and stay tuned for more walking news, plus info on great competitions coming your way soon!
