Please book a place in advance at the Tourist Information Centre.  A limited number of tickets are also available via TicketSource until 8.00am before Monday walks and noon on Friday for the walks on Saturday.  Tickets may still be available at the TIC even if the TicketSource allocation is shown as “SOLD OUT”.
