Divis torchlight walk @ 7pm

Grade Moderate.

The forecast for Thursday evening is dry with good visibility, it will be beautiful on Divis!

How to get to Divis Mountain - THE BEST WAY IS TO JUST CLICK ON THIS EVENT'S LOCATION AND YOUR PHONE'S GPS WILL BRING YOU STRAIGHT TO THE MEETUP FROM YOUR HOME.

Wrap up warm and bring your torch for this one! Dogs welcome but make sure they won't get lost in the dark. Keep them on a leash or attach a glow in the dark collar.

It should be clear enough to walk up the to the summit of Divis Mountain where we'll see the lights of Belfast below. The alternative route is the Black Mountain loop which also has great views but is a little less exposed.

Don't come on this walk without proper walking footwear, warm clothing and waterproofs. Will suit those with a good level of fitness.

Those coming must take careful instruction regarding safety on this walk, which means every person going out on the mountain must stay with the group.

If you are late, you won't be able to join the group. So make sure you know where you're going and arrive well on time.

Walk costs £6 for guests and non-members. Members with a paid subscription pay £1.
