Volunteering is integral to the DMP’s mission of improving the recreational experience in the Dublin Mountains, protecting the environment, and raising awareness of the benefits these mountains provide as set out in our Strategic Plan 2022-2026. Volunteers play a crucial role in achieving our goals. They are the friendly faces that visitors meet on the trails, the knowledgeable guides who lead our walks, and the hardworking individuals who maintain our trails and contribute to conservation. They help to ensure that everyone can enjoy the Dublin Mountains responsibly and safely.
