Gaisce Overnights

We regularly host school groups who wish to complete the hiking part of the Gaisce Bronze Award. We have a number of tried and tested hiking routes which we can advise you on. Usually groups will spread the distance over two days with one overnight spent in our Lodge hostel style self catering accommodation. This hike will usually include a trip to Marlogue Woods Coilte Forest trails, 30 – 40 mins hike from Cuskinny

The Historic Maritime Town of Cobh , Titanics last port of call, visitor attactions, historic tours, museum, Cobh Cathedral, shops, trains to Cork city, Fota Island and Midleton
