Waterford Sports Partnership held the third walk in the Walk Waterford Autumn Series on Sunday 2nd October, along the beautiful Tramore Doneraile.
Twenty five people turned out for this walk on a beautiful sunny October day. It was great to see so many people of all ages taking part. This 4.9km route is one of the Sli na Slainte routes which offers majestic views over Tramore Bay and surrounds as well as interesting heritage sites on the way.
Our fourth walk in the Walk Waterford Autumn Series is the Anne Valley Walk in Dunhill on Sunday 9th October. Participants are asked to meet at 2pm in the car park nearest the log cabin.
This is a lovely flat 4.4km walk which follows the Anne Valley River which flows through the Anne Valley and meanders past many beautiful ponds to reach Dunhill Castle 2.2km from the starting point. The walk is also a protected wildlife area and if you are lucky you may see some of the many protected wildlife species such as the Heron, Kingfisher, Otter and an amazing range of other fauna and flora. The newly developed path allows comfortable wheelchair and buggy access with no steep slopes. There are several bench seats along the walk where you can sit to relax and enjoy the peace of the valley while watching the wildlife.
Walkers will need suitable walking shoes (runners are ideal), warm clothing and a waterproof jacket. Children under 16 must be accompanied by an adult.
