Laragh Tidy Towns

Thank you to all the local residents, the local group of women from Ukraine and a few young children for helping us out on our big community clean up of the year. Everyone was brilliant with a great team spirit making it enjoyable for us on these evenings. laraghglendaloughtt@gmail.com

Wicklow Way Re-Route

We have opened a minor reroute on the Wicklow Way. When heading South just after passing the Mullacor saddle and start to descend into Glenmalure a new path has been built through Coillte land. This is an effort to create a more sustainable trail and remove some difficult /sensitive muddy and hard to maintain terrain.

Thanks to David Ward for his excellent work on the path. Thanks also to Coillte and Wicklow Mountains National Park together with County Wicklow Partnership for this collaborative effort to improve recreation in Wicklow – funded by the Outdoor Recreation Infrastructure Scheme.
