The 30th Ballyhoura Walking Festival takes place from 9th-11th October in Kilfinane, Co. Limerick.
This October the Ballyhoura Walking Festival celebrates 30 years of bringing people together to explore the landscapes, heritage and communities of Ballyhoura Country.
Recognised as Ireland's longest-running community-led walking festival, this special anniversary year also celebrates 40 years of Ballyhoura Fáilte and community tourism and 20 years of the Ballyhoura Mountain Bike Trails.
As part of the year’s Ballyhoura Walking Festival, a variety of walks to suit all ages and abilities will be on offer – from sunrise hikes to family-friendly strolls!
Running alongside it is the much-loved Joyce Brothers Music Festival, celebrating the legacy of PW and Robert Dyer Joyce, natives of Glenosheen, Co. Limerick, this vibrant festival brings music, song, dance, and history to the weekend.
Whether you're looking to challenge yourself on a mountain marathon, discover hidden heritage, enjoy a family day out, experience traditional Irish music, or simply spend time outdoors with friends, there's something for everyone at this year's festival.
