Leitrim Landscapes
Leitrim Landscapes, in conjunction with Tawnylust Lodge, Manorhamilton, offers guided walks on nature, archaeology, wildlife and foraging in the North Leitrim area, using local guides. On Sat July 19th & Sun July 20th there will be walks to Tullyskeherny archaeology site and Cranny Wood, Lurganboy respectively. These walks afford participants a practical opportunity to read and interpret the landscape around us, forage for food and thus increase our understanding and appreciation of both.
Walks both days will be 3-4 hours duration and not too strenuous. Leitrim Landscapes operates to ecotourism principles including Leave no Trace guidelines; groups are limited to a maximum of 15 participants.
Day trips €25/day, €40/ 2days. Weekend Packages incl self-catering accommodation €150/pp sharing based on 4.
For further information on day trips or weekend packages or to book please contact: Nuala McNulty at nulamcnulty@eircom.net or +353 (0) 87 9172143
Details of walks
Sat July 19th - 11am, meet at car park opposite Catholic Church Manorhamilon at the Fire Station.
Starting from the star fort located in Manorhamilton town the walk will lead out toward the Leitrim way via the Enniskillen road. We will reach the top of Tullyskeherney about ¾ of an hour later and then enter the plateau with its spectacular views and interesting archaeological sites ranging from the late Neolithic to the early Medieval period. The emphasis of this walk is going to be the geology, archaeology and wildlife. A practical approach in reading and interpreting the landscape around us thus increasing our appreciation of it.
The walk should take about 3 to 4 hours but won’t be strenuous, as a lot of this time has been allocated to looking at and for flora, fauna and things of interest.
Weather permitting we can then descend via the turf road toward Larkfield or loop around and return via the Leitrim way again.
Sunday July 20th - 11am, meet at car park opposite the Catholic Church Manorhamilton at the Fire Station
Leaving Manorhamilton, the walk will take us to Cranny Wood in Lurganboy and across Shanvaus hill affording stunning views of Benbo and Glencar Valley. The difference in geological formations is easily visible in this area. We will pass through Lurganboy village with its historical church and battle site into Milltown Wood along the river Bonet where we will look at a range of plants and wildlife. The duration of this walk is approximately 3 hours.
Walkers should bring strong walking boots/shoes, waterproof clothes, binoculars and lots of enthusiasm!
