Our next Killeavy Camino for Evora Hospice is being resceduled for later in the year. This is a gentle 10 mile walk, where you will walk in the footsteps of one of Ireland’s first female saints . In 450, Moninne left the Hill of Faughart to found a church on the foothills of Slieve Gullion. This is now called Killeavy (church of the mountain). Our sacred walk begins with magnificent views and meditation at the sacred sites of Faughart. This was home to St Bridget who was a great mentor to Moninne. We meander across beautiful roaming country roads within the spectacular Ring of Gullion. Our halfway resting point is at the Three Steps pub and Mc Guills cafe. Our pilgrim walk continues across the side of Slieve Gullion and through the cooling forest. At Slieve Gullion Forest Park we will have a comfort break.
On the final leg of the journey, we will pass Killeavy Castle, on our way to Moninnes resting place at Killeavy Old Churches. Frontier are kindly transporting us back to Faughart.
