New County Kilkenny walkway set to officially open to the public
From this week’s Windgap Notes in the Kilkenny People newspaper
A new walking trail in Tullahought will officially open this Sunday as part of Heritage Week, adding another option for walkers exploring the area.
The new Birchwood Walk will be opened at the community centre in Tullahought at 6pm on Sunday next. It will consist of a guided tour as part of the Heritage Week events. The new walk will bring to four the Kilkenny Trail options in length and difficulty in the area.
All will use the same starting point as the popular Kilmacoliver Loop, which has also been extended in recent times. The day’s activities will commence at 11am with the annual Mike Williams Hurling and Camogie Shield games in the local sports field.
