Organisers have marked the 30th anniversary of the Comeragh Crossing in Waterford. The event takes place on 11 July 2026 as part of Comeraghs Wild Festival. Four route options range from 12 kilometres to 45 kilometres.
Participants hike to the summit of Cruachán with views across Dungarvan Bay. Proceeds support West Waterford Hospice, Dungarvan Lions Club and South Eastern Mountain Rescue. The Coumshingaun Ridge Walk follows on 12 July.
The festival runs from 9 to 12 July with music, walks and community events.
Bernadette Drohan shared “The Comeragh Crossing is much more than a walk. It represents thirty years of community spirit, friendship, resilience and appreciation for this extraordinary landscape.”
