Unfortunately the T.I.O. in Monaghan has been relocated. Luckly Monaghan Leisure Complex was next door to the old T.I.O. and Michelle Leonard was happy to stamp and sign my stage stage 17 map.

Tonight we will stay at Tepee Valley Campsite just outside Markethill, Co. Armagh. We brought our own accommodation, in the form of a camper van, but they provide options for an alternative sleepover experience in the form of a Gypsy caravan, Yurt, Tepee and log cabin. Check it out at:
