World Wetlands Day 2024 – Ballycroy (Mayo)
Join us at 12.30pm on Friday the 2nd of February at The Ballycroy Visitor Centre as we celebrate World Wetlands Day with a guided walk around the 2km nature trail at the Visitor Centre.
Our guide will lead you on walk to discover how our blanket bogs were formed and how they are important habitats for our wildlife, act as carbon sinks and are a natural vast water reservoir.
At the visitor Centre we will have free Blanket bog plant ID sheets, and have a demonstration on how our Atlantic Blanket bogs were formed.
Our walk is free of charge and is all on our buggy and wheelchair friendly trail. Please dress for the weather!
Meet at the Ballycroy Visitor Centre at The Wild Nephin National Park
