parkrun Bere Island #126 24/12/16
Saturday 24th December 2016
parkrun on Bere Island, County Cork, Ireland.
A particularly interesting parkrun. It involves taking the ferry from Castletown to Bere Island, then a minibus to the start. There are changing facilities at the football club clubhouse. The hilly course has spectacular views to the Sheep's Head Peninsular & Hungry Hill across the wild Atlantic. Drinks are provided at the finish and showers are available in the changing rooms. Afterwards, everybody walks down to Bere Island Bake House (in the rear of Murphy's Pub) for hot drinks & cakes. Finally the minibus takes you back to the ferry which then takes you back to Castletown.
The combined return fare on the ferry and minibus is €10.
