Wonder Wander Walking Trails - Ballina
Talk & Discussion
Friday 25th September 2026
4:30pm - 5pm
The Clarke Museum of Irish History, Ballina.
Tickets: FREE, no registration required.
Join Studio Myco and James Grieve Architects to hear more about the Wonder Wander Walking Trails and the new trail currently being developed for Ballina.
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 Ballina 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 Ballina 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.
Help shape the Ballina trail: Community engagement events will take place on Wednesday 26 August 2026 on Pearse Street, 12–2pm, and at Ballina Library, 4–7pm. We’d love to see you there!
