Westport Hill Walkers

 
                                         ABOUT US

We have approximately 70 members, and organise scheduled walks for three levels –

A. - Multiple summits including scrambling. 4 to 7+ Hours. 900 to 1500 mtrs ascent.

B. - Single summit, some light scrambling. 3 to 5+ Hours. 600 to 1200 mtrs ascent.

C. - Trail walks up to about 500 meters altitude.  2 to 5+ Hours.

We are a Hillwalking Group, so people who join us need to have a reasonable level of fitness.

Members should have the proper gear (i.e. strong hiking boots, with waterproof outerwear)

We also encourage people to bring a complete change of clothes for the end of the walk, as we usually go to a pub or café for an hour or so afterwards.

Upon completing an Application Form ( download link below ),  we allow prospective members to try out our Club and to join us for two walks without making a commitment.

Membership of Westport Hillwalkers includes Mountaineering Ireland membership and the club pays 50% of all Mountaineering Ireland skills courses.

The current club fee is €60 and is payable by Bank transfer to :-
