It’s that time of year again!!! The Annual Joyce Country Challenge will be taking place this year next Saturday 20th July, with all proceeds being shared between Galway Hospice and Mayo/Roscommon Hospice Foundation.
This challenge presents an opportunity to walk one of Ireland’s hidden gems, while raising much needed funds for two local charities. There will be 4 grades of walk to choose from, ranging from a ‘Ramble’ (for the less experienced walker), to a ‘Challenge’ which caters for the more experienced, fit and self-sufficient walker, including a 1,936m ascent! Along the way, there will be outstanding views of Lough Nafooey, Lough na Fooey, Devil’s Mother and lots more.
