Galway Mountain Rescue Team wants you to Howl at the Moon for charity this September!
Galway Mountain Rescue Team is hosting another Howl at the Moon event in Galway this coming September.
The charity is calling on local adventurers, nature lovers, and night owls to step into the moonlight once again for a cause that saves lives.
The unique walking challenge set in Galway Wind Park will take place on the evening of Harvest Full Moon on Saturday, September 26, 2026.
It follows on from a successful Howl at the Moon event last year.
The event offers a novel opportunity for participants to hike around the Wind Farm under the full moon, following either a 9km or 17km route.
Everyone is encouraged to come well-prepared with suitable warm gear and a head torch. It takes place at the Wind Farm at Lettercraffroe, Knock South in Connemara (H91 K46D).
“Galway Mountain Rescue is very appreciative of the support that we receive from the public. The Howl at the Moon event is an opportunity to meet the team and have a very enjoyable evening hiking around the wind farm.
“All funds will go towards our voluntary activities of helping those who need our assistance in the remote and upland areas of Galway and Clare,” said Dermot Hughes, team member and Howl at the Moon, event manager.
