IF you’re single and have been told to take a hike by the opposite sex, then you probably should do that on Saturday, May 10.

Sarah Benner and Rachel Boyle from Tralee are organising a novel way for young men and women to meet each other and there’s been a great interest so far, they’ve even been approached by The Late Late Show to do an item on it for this Friday’s show.

“‘Hot in the Hills’ is a venture away from the typical singles nights or internet dating. Firstly, the event is aimed at people that are active or at the very least interested in trying outdoor pursuits,” they say.
“It is our ambition to run the ultimate singles adventure with a fun-filled event kicking off in Ballydavid, Dingle. Before any of your readers cringe and switch off, we want to say that this is not your typical match-making affair.”

A large portion of the day will be spent on a fully guided hike up Mount Brandon (Ireland’s second highest mountain) with experienced guide Con Moriarty and his team.

The ladies say it’s a fun way to interact with fellow singles in a pressure-free environment.

“At least afterwards everyone will have something to talk about, the climb and the breathtaking scenery.”

This event for the under 45 age group and suits all levels of fitness. Sarah and Rachel guarantee an equal ratio of men/women and there will strictly be no themes or dodgy gimmicks.

On return from the climb they will rendezvous at TP’s public house on the waterfront in Ballydavid. The party will truly begin in earnest with a tasty meal, a lively trad session and plenty of fun and frolics!

“In general, people are interested in meeting new faces from different towns. From our research we believe that there is a niche in the market for a relaxed singles event,” said Sarah.

So if you are available and feel like meeting new faces join them for the ‘Hot in the Hills’ on Saturday May 10.
