County Meath / Co. na Mí (the middle) is named after historic kingdom and province of Mide.

Did you know? Meath is home to the only gaeltachtaí in Leinster, Rath Cairn agus Baile Gib. The Ráth Cairn Gaeltacht was founded in 1935 when 41 families from Conamara were settled on land previously acquired by the Irish Land Commission. Ráth Cairn has since grown into a village with a Catholic church, sports facilities, pub, a community centre and a second level school.

You will notice below that the kilometres are marked…

Available – You can buy the kilometre by clicking on the "Buy now" button 

Contact Us - you can buy the kilometre on behalf of a school/group but to do so, you need to do through the County Meath coordinator for Rith 2012 at anmhi@rith.ie or fill in the form on www.rith.ie Why are some of the kilometres reserved? As Rith 2012 is a community baed festival, we would prefer that the kilometres in the towns and villages be purchased by schools or community groups rather than private individuals or businesses. We are hoping that groups such as the following will buy the reserved kilometres: Schools, Colleges, Youth Clubs,  Irish language groups, Community Groups, Sports Clubs, Scouts, Girl Guides etc.

Sold – The kilometre has been purchased by another person/group.  You can view on the website who they are.
