Doggy Ranger Walk
As part of the 2025 Belfast Pride Festival, join us to learn how your dog can be a doggy ranger. Dogs and humans experience the world in very different ways which has been the basis of our long history working together.
- Booking essential
- Free event
On this dog led walk, harness their sense of smell to experience the mountains in a new way. We will learn more about the habitat and conservation work happening on the mountain, how your dog can help us find and protect our rare and beautiful species and why dogs and humans can be such a great team.
Please note there are two timings for this walk, 10am start - moderate to difficult walk. 2pm start - shorter more accessible walk. For accessibility queries please contact the Divis & the Black Mountain office.
