Excitement builds for Mourne Truck Run

On Saturday 5th August several hundred truck and van drivers will be taking to the hills of Newry and Mourne to raise much needed funds for the Southern Area Hospice and the Kevin Bell Repatriation Trust. 

Gathering in St Christopher’s Park, Newry they will begin to depart from 1.00p.m. onwards.  

The impressive convoy will head up Bridge Street and the Dublin Road towards Carnbane Industrial Estate, via Belfast Road towards the Brass Monkey.  

From there it will head towards Rathfriland via the Orchard Bar, then on to Hilltown, Rostrevor and Warrenpoint. 

A truck show and family fun day on Sunday 6th August is open to everyone between 12 – 5pm.
