    We suggest you contribute to the cost of fuel and respect the drivers requests regarding pick up and drop off points as well as adhering to COVID-19 precautions; like the wearing of face coverings, use of hand sanitiser and sitting in the back of the car for the journey. Please note-We do not organise or take any responsibility for car pooling- the Facebook group is only a facilitator.

    Intermediate: 8km-15km, a mixture of flat, with some steady and steep inclines

    Difficult: 10km+ Mostly steady and steep inclines

    Advanced: 20km+ Long distance, a mixture of flat, steady and steep inclines. We recommend you complete at least 1 Difficult trail with GGW before attempting an advanced trail.

  • Yes, Absolutely! We are aware that the website currently only shows babies in carriers. We will be updating the website with more photos of kids of all ages to represent inclusiveness. :)

    Our events will state which ages they are suitable for. Currently most events are suitable for all ages as the routes and trails are short in distance for little legs. However, as our communities grow across Ireland so will events and then we expect there to be more age specific events for your children. For this to happen we would love our Mams to submit an event in their county. No body knows their county better than you!
