Trail Running AC

Galway Trail Running was set up in late 2020, with the aim to promote the sport of Trail and Mountain Running in County Galway and the West of Ireland. We setup a WhatsApp group to connect people interested in trail running. Over the following years, the group has grown to nearly 300 members. Now we host multiple weekly meet ups. Supporting people to enjoy the Irish Trails.
