Boherquill Ramblers
The Ramblers met in Castlepollard on Sunday 15 March 2026 hoping to avoid the frequent showers which had fallen during the morning and apart from one short shower, they made it from The Square out to Tullynally Castle and almost back before the rain came again. The walk up the drive into the Castle was lined with clusters of daffodils swaying in the cool wind. On Sunday 29 March 2026 the Ramblers will walk at Ballinafid.
Cars will meet at 14:00 (2 PM) at the car park on the road signed for Ballynafid Lake off the N4 opposite the Multyfarnham turn-off (The Covert). Boots are advised for this boardwalk and forest trail walk. Visit: Boherquill Ramblers.
