Joining Siul Eile is far and away the best thing I’ve done in years. I’ve made wonderful new, like-minded friends and participated in beautiful scenic walks, both challenging and less challenging. There’s a welcome for everyone and my fitness has improved too. Couldn’t ask for more.

Siul Eile has given me the opportunity to meet like minded people,socialise in a healthy environment and explore new walking routes as part of a well managed and organised walking group. Local knowledge of all the leaders is absolutely brilliant.

Going out with Siul Eile on walks be it woods, mountains, lakes or just about town I’ve met so many like minded people loving the walks, talks and the beauty around us, people in the group are so welcoming and knowledgeable of places we ventured to . The leaders are considerable towards everyone’s fitness levels .look forward to the weekly catch up with all .thanks for the opportunity to be part of the Siul Eile family.

I find it great for getting out and about in fresh air moving the body in open country, in woods or on hillsides in the safety of a group.
There is no pressure to be there.
Having so many members means we can dip in and out and the walks will still go ahead.everybody is treated equally.

Siul Eile is one of the best things I have done in a long time. I’ve made great friends discovered the joy and health benefits of walking in our beautiful countryside.

Siul Eile is a life changer for me . It’s fitness, social and also getting me out of the house. I like the way it’s fluid… do the walks you want to, no pressure.

Siul Eile is super to have people to go walking with new friends, great chats, fresh air, lovely walks, walks are well paced.

Joining Siul Eile was the best decision I made. Great walks, beautiful scenery and best of all great friends.

Suil Eile has widened my circle of friends and increased my fitness levels. It has also increased my awareness of the beauty of the countryside.

For me joining Siul Eile was a life changer.  I cared for my Mam for several years and i didn’t have many friends. After she passed away it was just what I needed to keep my mind occupied, not to mention the amount of good friends that I have made.

Since I started walking with Siul Eile about a year ago I’ve met so many fabulous people and have discovered places in South Tipperary I’d never even heard of before. I really look forward to the walks and the wonderful thing is that there’s a level of walk to suit everyone regardless of ability while also providing the right amount of challenge. There’s a great bunch of leaders also who guide us on the way and provide interesting bits of information about the area.

Joining Siul Eile is the best decision I have made to enhance my fitness levels. The leaders make everyone welcome.. I never realised  that we had such beautiful scenic walks  all on our door step here in  Clonmel until I started walking with Siul Eile. Long may Siul Eile continue.

Siul Eile has given me a whole new focus in life . I joined a year before my retirement ,a month after my mother died . I had the free time then to concentrate on improving further my physical fitness. Being out in the fresh air in mountains and hills is my happy place. During Covid my husband joined me on the walks and now we walk together and with our Siul Eile friends at home and abroad .  The inspiration and encouragement from Siul Eile cannot be quantified. Siul Eile instills a confidence in us to leave our comfort zone and broaden our horizons. Siul Eile’s impact on our lives has enabled us to offer hundreds of people in our community a whole new lifestyle .

Since joining Siul Eile I have really extended my knowledge of the forests around us with which I have a great affinity. You get to walk with and know people that otherwise wouldn’t have happened if not for Siul Eile. With the regular notifications of walks on the Siul Eile App. I can choose where and when I want to walk. It’s a great organization. You will never have to walk alone.

Walking with Siul Eile people in our beautiful local woods helped me heal after bereavement, thdeep physical pain was released ,body as well as mind healed.
A special time for which I am truly grateful.
