'This Group was formed on 24th April 2013 ... Members come from the South Down, South Armagh area, specifically Rathfriland, Rostrevor, Warrenpoint and Newry. We also have members from Dundalk, Drogheda and Navan.'

'Our club is based in Lisburn, it has approximately 30 members, of which about 10 – 15 turn up for each walk. Most members are late middle aged so most of the walks we do would be in the easy category. We tend to walk in the more picturesque parts of the country, and while we like the mountains we seldom climb to the top.' Alert Website unavailable at Review; Link replaced with generic list.
