About Tullow Mountaineering Club
We are a Carlow based club and most of our members are from Carlow and surrounding counties. Currently, we have over 70 members. We do most of our walking in the Carlow/ Wexford / Wicklow area. Walks are organised 3 times a week with our main walk being on a Sunday.
We depart every Sunday from Barrack Street in Carlow at 9.30 a.m. Most walks are medium to hard but the first Sunday of every month is an easy walk and is a good opportunity for beginners to try it out.
Our Sunday walks can take us to the Wicklow Mountains, the Blackstairs, the Galtees and the Comeraghs, all stunning mountain ranges to explore.
We would also encourage new members to start with the Wednesday evening walk. We meet at Askea Church Carpark for carpooling at 6:20pm.The walk leader on a Wednesday is an experienced club member. The walk leader is rotated on Sunday and Friday walks. All our walk leaders are experienced hillwalkers with a great knowledge of the hills.
Friday evening hikes depart from the Wexford Farmers Co-Op car park in Bunclody, Co. Wexford at 7pm. Carpooling from Askea Church in Carlow at 6:20pm and Bunclody at 6:50pm.
Times may vary - please contact John Byrne 086 277 2633
The club enjoys several trips away throughout the year including trips to various locations in Ireland, Scotland and Wales. Some of our more adventurous members venture on overseas trips taking on the challenge of many European mountain ranges.
We hope you enjoy your visit to our website and if you are interested in joining Tullow Mountaineering Club, we would be delighted to hear from you.
