Autumn in Ballyhoura is a time for stepping outside, embracing the great outdoors, and immersing yourself in local culture. As part of this year’s Ballyhoura Walking Festival, we’re excited to offer a variety of walks to suit all ages and abilities – from sunrise hikes to family-friendly strolls!

And running alongside it is the much-loved Joyce Brothers Music Festival celebrating the legacy of PW and Robert Dyer Joyce, natives of Glenosheen, Co. Limerick, this vibrant festival brings music, song, dance, and history to the weekend.

This year we’re celebrating the thirtieth anniversary of our Walking Festival! The event programme will be revealed later in the year, so watch this space for more updates.
