    Ballyhoura: A Little Tease of the Beautiful Galtees

    We're here to start off our exploration of Ballyhoura Country with an amazing guide to the Galtee Mountains, Jimmy Barry. Jimmy has been exploring, walking and leading on the Galtees for four decades, and he is one of the exceptional local guides whose knowledge of place and the passion for their environment makes wandering about with them truly special. Each October the Ballyhoura Walking Festival explores walking from every angle and for every ability and is a must for an immersion into all of the trails on offer in this very special part of Irelands Hidden Heartlands. A walk is never just a walk in Ballyhoura, it’s a chance to connect with local people, learn something new, understand the history, the story (there’s always a story!) and appreciate the environment you explore, whilst breathing that fresh crisp air and leaving feeling better than when you arrived. Enjoy this special exploration of the Galtees as we begin our journey into Ballyhoura Country!

    Morzine: Magic Carpet Sitting & Trout Fishing

    It's a beautiful summery day high in the French Alps, so I wandered up the hill to what was advertised as a Magic Carpet. While the carpet was a bit of a disappointment, I was very lucky to meet the fantastic Guibou. Guibou is a seasonal worker in Morzine, he has weird and wonderful jobs every summer & rents out skis in the winter for almost 10 years now. For Guibou, the magic happens in between when the resort get empty, he gets to do his things and share his time with the river & forest, fly fishing & picking up mushrooms or sculpting and making knives. Be in touch with Ronni with all your ideas and to invite him to perform. All that ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

    Louth: Silliness & Joy Upon Slieve Foye

He works throughout the country excavating and analysing historic human skeletal remains. Oisín is a second year secondary school student and when not hiking, he enjoys football, cycling, running and the local fame the 32 Peak Challenge brought him!

    Slieve Binnian: Crossroad Dancing & Misty Mountain Prancing

    Back in the beautiful Mourne Mountains of County Down, I was lucky enough to hike up Slieve Binnian with the fantastic Lizzy Noone. Or at least I think it was Binnian. With the horizontal rain and mist it was difficult to tell. Lizzy is a forever curious clumsy flawed left-handed human being who loves art, theatre, music, people and life. She is a long time global citizenship educator (currently working for IDEA), activist and is on a quest to find a fairer political and economic system for all 8.5 billion people in the world. She loves swimming in any outdoor water, hiking and camping (a part time scout leader too). She is one of the founding members of Pleasure Activism Ireland which brings all of these things together! Be in touch with Ronni with all your ideas and to invite him to perform. All that ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

    Slieve Muck: Making Tracks & Camping Snacks

    Up on the relatively mucky Slieve Muck in the beautiful Mourne Mountains of County Down, I bumped into the inspirational Noah and Marcel who were out on a camping trip. We had a lovely spontaneous conversation in the shadow of the Mourne Wall, before they got to their Super Noodle dinner and I carried on my evening wander. Noah is a boat builder, helping to create innovative electric foiling boats for the future, and Marcel is a Architecture Student, Judoka and hiking enthusiast. Be in touch with Ronni with all your ideas and to invite him to perform. All that ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.
