Summer League #6 Ballyannon Wood, Midleton Tuesday June 24th
Â
The sixth event in the CorkO Summer League will take place at Ballyannon Wood in Midleton on Tuesday June 24th.
Ballyannon Wood is a beautiful mature mixed woodland located at the end of Dyers Road in Midleton on the Owenacurra Estuary. It is a relatively small wood with a very extensive network of paths. The similarity between a number of these paths often causes confusion and one junction in the centre of the wood has six such paths off it. It might be beneficial to have a compass on hand to aid navigation and relocation!
