Experience
the Trail

Here you can listen to little Daniel’s story based on the true story of 12-year old Daniel Tighe and his last journey on Irish soil reimagined in vignettes by Marita Conlon-McKenna. And also listen and learn about each area as you walk through – names, landmarks and its famine history. Videos, interviews and stories. Engaging, informative and interesting.

Our Official Pack and Passport Guide completes the experience.
