Our next Sole Mates outing is to the Whitehead to Blackhead coastal path, Co Antrim .
We will meet in St Molua’s Church carpark at 9.45am on Saturday 21 June and travel by Glider (G1) to Lanyon Station where we will catch the train to Whitehead.
At Whitehead there will be a choice of stages
Stage1
Suitable for all
Good level path along shore
Stage 2
At own risk with caution
Along the base of Blackhead, uneven steps which could be slippery skirting over the water. Narrow passageways and rocky overhang. Other than that really interesting taking us to the base of the lighthouse. Most will return the same way.
Stage 3
Only for those confident and fit without any adverse medical conditions
Steep ascent to lighthouse, handrails but uneven steps. A strenuous climb but worth the view. Steep descent mostly with handrails.
Our walks are open to all – to church members, friends and relatives and anyone else who would like to join us. However, please note:
