Wonder Wander Walking Trails - Westport
Talk & Discussion followed by free guided walk
Thursday 24th September 2026, 4:30pm - 5pm
Westport Library
FREE, no registration required.
Join Studio Myco and James Grieve Architects in association with Mayo County Council’s Architectural conservation Office to hear more about the Wonder Wander Walking Trails and the new trail currently being developed for Westport.
The National Inventory of Architectural Heritage’s Wonder Wander initiative creates community-led, self-guided trails celebrating the distinctive buildings, architectural details, places and stories found within Ireland’s Architectural Conservation Areas.
At the event, the project team will introduce the wider initiative, share how the Westport trail is being developed, and provide a glimpse at some of the buildings, places and local stories emerging for the trail maps.
There will also be an opportunity to share additional knowledge, memories and insights, helping to further shape and enrich the trail before it is finalised.
The completed Westport Wonder Wander Walking Trail will include an interactive map and family-friendly scavenger hunt, encouraging people to glance up, peer down and discover familiar places in new ways, before launching in spring 2027.
The talk will be followed by a free guided walk of the historic planned town of Westport by Westport Historical Society.
