Stars and Stones Explored

The return of the first fully dark Stars and Stones Explored of autumn is all about the púca and stories told by our ancestors to cope with the long dark nights.

From banshees to bats and fairies, we have many ancient mischievous creatures who lurk in the dark ready to frighten anyone who dares to go out in the dead of night. As the autumn sky comes into view we will be explaining how these stories were birthed from long nights spent around the fire. Learn how stone sites like Beaghmore would provide protection for the coming season of Samhain [“Halloween”] in this spooky month of October.

This event starts with a delicious picnic and refreshments before following the Solar Walk from OM over to the Beaghmore Stone Circles. The total walk will be just under 4 miles. Please wear suitable footwear and clothing. Dress weather appropriate as this event is outdoors and in darkness.

Please bring a torch with you, preferably with red light.
