Tullaghobegley Heritage Walking Weekend
A weekend of activities developed from the original mountain walk, “Turas an tSléibhe”. The walk retraces the old pilgrim burial route to Tullaghobegley. The Tullaghobegley Heritage was is usually on the May Bank Holiday weekend
Back in the early 90’s three young women from coiste Glór na nGael had among its heritage plans and actions the cleaning, restoration and documentation of the history of Tullaghabegley graveyard. The restoration works commenced in February 1992 as did the first commentorative walk on the 16 February. Little did the coiste Glór na nGael members Maire Nic Suibhne, Maire Nic Gairbhe, Mairín Ní Dubhchoin think that the walk would become an annual weekend event.
Tháinig triúr ban óg ó Choiste Glór na nGael le cheile i dtús na n-ochaidí agus d’éirigh leo scéim a chur ar bun le Reilig Stairiúil Thulacha Beigile a ghlanadh agus a chóiriú agus an t-eolas luachmhar a bhí sa reilig a chaomhnú. Thosaigh an obair i mí Feabhra 1992 agus bhí an chead siúlóid ann ar an 16ú Feabhra 1992.. Is beag a shíl an triúr, Máire Mhic Suibhne, Máire Nic Gairbheith agus Mairín Ní Dhubhcháin go mbeadh an siúlóid a thosaigh siad ag dul go láidir níos mó na fiche bliain ar aghaidh.
