Course
An anticlockwise loop of the Kerry Way from Waterville, County Kerry, over rough mountainside, singletrack and stretches of tarred road. The 43km climbs about 1,240m, running over Coomakista, past Derrynane Beach, Eagle Hill and Lough Currane, with a 5km ridge section above Ballinskelligs Bay. Longer 130km, 86km and 25km races and a kids run share the weekend.
