Cosán na Naomh (The Saints’ Road) is an ancient Pilgrim Path. We will be walking the route
in reverse, starting at Baile Breac at the foot of Mount Brandon and finishing at Ventry
Beach.
The walk is mostly gentle along quiet fushia lined lanes, highways and byways with one
major climb over Reenconnell Hill (274m)
We will pass the ancient Romanesque church and Ogham stone at Kilmalkedar and Gallarus
Oratory and Castle.

This walk will finish with a ‘Swim in Pink’ for breast cancer research. Bring your togs, some pink and we will raise some money for a good cause.
