Hospice at Home - Warden’s Walk Kirk Michael Hikers Trail - Leg 1 – 15 June 2025 We have two more walks to complete the Hospice at Home Wardens Walks challenge; the Hikers Trail Legs 1 and 2. After rain delays and then the TT – couldn’t access either the start or finish for a fortnight! - Leg 1 will now take place on 15 June followed by the finale, the Hikers Trail Leg 2, on Sunday 29 June. The map for these can be downloaded from the DEFA website, here, referred as Kirk Michael Hikers Trail. This shows the full trail; however as the full Hiker’s Trail is 17 kilometres overall and identified as “strenuous” we decided to do this walk in two legs. We recce’d both legs of the Hiker’s Trail last year and with Ron’s electronic maps found our way without too many false turnings; hopefully the trails not become overgrown since! Arrangements: ➢ Date – 15 June ➢ Meet- 10am Glen Helens carpark ➢ Finish - Sartfield forest carpark - Waypoint 14 - on B10 road from Brandywelll. ➢ Carpooling- as this is not a circular walk, please arrange with friends to leave a car at the Sartfield forest carpark. Whilst we won’t leave anybody stranded up there it will be simpler if all make own arrangements to return to Glen Helens once hiking is finished! ➢ Lunch - We’ll arrange with the Mitre Pub in Kirk Michael. Don’t forget to pay the walk fee of £15pp at our Warden’s Walk – Just Giving page; then you can enjoy magnificent views like this on Sunday! Hope to see a great crowd on Sunday morning. Johnny
