‘Children always love exploring the great outdoors’ said Pádraig ‘and with this series of nature walks families will get the chance to discover new walking trails in the West Cork  region. So get on your outdoor shoes and enjoy an afternoon’s stroll with your children!’

 Padraig will be leading a series of five nature walks in selected locations throughout West Cork over the coming weeks.

The walks are suitable for children aged five up and will include nature awareness activities.
