Donegal Climbfest 2009 - Féile Dhreapadóireachta Dún na nGall 2009
The 2009 Climbfest has gone "On Tour" from its traditional base at Culdaff, to Glencolmcille in SW Donegal.
From Friday 1st to Monday 4th May 2009, climbers are invited to sample the routes at nearby Malinbeg, Skelpoonagh Bay, Port Bay, Sail Rock, and Muckross. Camping has been arranged beside the GAA pitch, and there are toilets and water available. The campsite is only a couple of minutes from shops and pubs in the village, and there is a new independent hostel at the entrance to the ground, for those who do not wish to camp.
The area around Glencolmcille boasts the finest coastal walking and scenery in Ireland, and the campsite is only metres from a sandy beach. There will be the usual Bar b Que on Saturday night, and it is hoped to provide Tee Shirts for those attending.
Registration will be Eu10. camping fee to GAA Eu5 per tent per night. The event subscribes to the MCI Leave No Trace policy, and further details will be posted on the Colmcille Climbers website
