Participants are welcome to travel to JYM under their own steam, but if you would rather travel by public transport in the company of others, groups will be travelling together from Dublin.
By Car

Take the A50 out of Banbridge to Gilford. At the mini roundabout in Gilford, turn right (still the A50) towards Lurgan and Portadown. As you go out of the Gilford and the 30mph zone there is a road to the left which is signposted Portadown (this is the Moyallon Road).
Moyallon Road – About a mile out this road, there is a road to the left and you take this road (Stramore Road). About 50metres after the bad bend. Moyallon Friends Meeting House and the Moyallon Centre are down a lane on the left Ð the Meeting house is signposted at the bottom of the lane.
2. Via Lurgan
Take the Gilford road out of Lurgan and just before Gilford, take the Moyallon Road which is on your right and follow the directions as above.
3. Via Portadown
Take the road to Gilford out of Portadown (A50). You will pass Portadown Golf Club. At the roundabout, take the road to Gilford and you will pass Moyallon Primary School. Shortly after this, take the road to the right Ð Stramore Road. About 50metres after the bad bend. Moyallon Friends Meeting House and the Moyallon Centre are down a lane on the left Ð the Meeting house is signposted at the bottom of the lane.
By Public Transport
We have arranged for a mini bus to take JYMers from Portadown train station to Moyallon which will meet the 1700 train from Dublin Connolly, arriving in P’down at 1823 on the 21st April. This minibus will take JYMers back to Portadown on Monday 25th April, arriving on time for the 11:08 train back to Dublin.
If you would like a place on this bus (whether you are travelling on the Dublin train or not), please let us know by 10th April so we can make sure we have hired a big enough bus.
If you want to take public transport from another direction, you’ll need to catch a bus or train to Portadown station for 18:30, and let us know that you’ll be there.
