Frequently Asked Questions:

Do I need any Hillwalking experience?

No, the event is designed for people who would like to try out hillwalking or have considered joining a hiking group, but just don’t feel ready of it yet.

Do I need to be very fit to join?

There is a steep incline and downhill, but with normal fitness level, it should be doable. However, if you have any heart or other health condition, or an injury, please contact the organiser or check with your GP.

What should I do if I don’t have hiking boots?

Hiking boots are always recommended as they offer ankle support. If it is something you might like to do in future, I recommend getting some. However, at the same time, it is not advisable to walk in completely new shoes. If you have other shoes that a non-slip and offer support, that’s ok.

Will the event take place if it’s raining?

Yes, rain won’t stop us going for a hike and it can sometimes be a great and rewarding experience. However, should there be any weather warnings, the event will be postponed. Should you not be able to take part on the re-scheduled day, we will fully refund you.

Is there car parking?

Yes, there are plenty of car parking spaces. Usually, there is a charge of €3 per car, but you will receive a code to get free parking.

I have dietary requirements, can you cater for that?

Vegetarian pizzas available. We’re not currently able to cater for gluten-free or vegan on this occasion.

Can I get a refund if I can’t make it?

You can get a refund if you let us know at the latest 48hours in advance. However, please feel free to hand your ticket to someone else.
