Guided walk to celebrate European Day of parks
It was a glorious Saturday morning that the conservation rangers, Trish Beecher and Jess Burkitt led a very educational walk out from upper Torc car park towards the Old Kenmare road, sharing their expertise on the local flora, wildlife and even local history for the low price of picking up litter on the way back. Keep an eye out for more events in the future, as there are more on the horizon.
