Alan Sayers

Mini Bio

With 20 years of Mountain Rescue experience and 30 years working as a Registered Nurse, I have followed my passions in Mountaineering and Cycling whenever the opportunities arise. Having climbed the high Alpine and Icelandic peaks, I still prefer nothing more than hiking in the dramatic Irish landscape of our Island home.

Born and raised in Killarney, I lived in England and Australia before settling in Sligo. A great day is spent out and about on my bike, seeing something new and learning more about our fascinating heritage. I look forward to sharing and showcasing all that Ireland does best with the same enthusiasm as my first trips into the Irish countryside.

Favourite Place to Play

I love the landscape that inspired me as a young boy, the lakelands and mountains around Killarney are an unbeatable playground.

Not a lot of People Know This

I love to bake and spent a few years in the catering industry, scones are my obsession.
