Hill walking group in the Dublin / Kildare area

Benny_Cake

Apologies if this has been asked before. I'm getting into hillwalking at the moment, still something of a novice but my fitness is improving and I'm really loving it. So I was thinking of joining a club as it would be helpful to meet up with others, learn from them and so on, as well as to have company when tackling more difficult terrain. There seem to be plenty of clubs around, but, how can I put it, many of the members seem to be predominantly of an older age group - not that there is anything wrong with that! I'm in my early 30s, are there clubs out there with a decent number of a similar age? Thanks!

I would endorse The Wayfarers, they are a club with a lot going on. just email them and go on a hike with them and see what you think, (you can go up to 3 times without joining) www.wayfarersassociation.com. Club members also do a bit of climbing, camping, Alpinism... age range varies from 30s up.
