Cosán na Naomh event

One in Four’s 2022 Autumn Pilgrim walk is based in County Kerry around Cosán na Naomh: one of Ireland’s most fascinating and beautiful old pilgrimage roads.

It presents no major challenge, even for the casual walker. The scenery is spectacular with a constant vista of sea or mountain and often both.
