  • Spring Gathering 2020 Hosted by Wayfarers Hiking Club
    Spring Gathering 2020 Hosted by Wayfarers Hiking Club Friday March 27th – Sunday March 29th 2020 The Wayfarers Hiking Club 1970-2020 The Wayfarers Hiking Club is this year celebrating 50 years of hiking and as part of our year of celebrations we are proud to have been selected as the host club for the Mountaineering Ireland’s Spring Gathering 2020. Our founding member Mary Solan led the hike which evolved into the Wayfarers Hiking Club in October 1970, from this small beginning we have become one of the larger hiking clubs in the region with 240 members. Members come from across Dublin and further afield, four hikes are organised each weekend varying in difficulty and duration to suit all of our member’s abilities. The club members are environmentally aware, we follow the leave no trace principles, we encourage carpooling and are conscious of our responsibility in the area of conservation. Club members are encouraged to undertake Mountain Skills training and some of our most experienced club members have developed a two day Navigation training programme which they deliver to members. The club plans regular trips away over the long weekends in Ireland and celebrates Christmas with a whiskey hike and a party. The club barbeque every August in Glenmalure is one of the highlights of the summer. Many of our members take part in challenge hikes throughout the year and the annual Blackstairs Challenge hike which is organised by the club is held in May each year in Co. Carlow. The Wayfarers have put together a hiking programme for the Spring Gathering weekend which includes some of our favourite hikes in the West Wicklow area.
