Mourne International Walking Festival 2013

We're proud to partner with Newry and Mourne Tourism to sponsor the 2013 Mourne International Walking Festival this summer. Walkers, book the 28-30th June in your diaries now.

You'll take part in a celebration of the very best of our mountain range, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Consider taking a group of friends along to share the outdoor experience and look forward to the company of new friends too.

On Saturday the 29th, head to the aptly-named 'Blister Ball' in Warrenpoint for an evening of entertainment. A perfect way to wind down!
