Munster Championship
The race begins on Claragh Rd (just opposite the carpark) heading south. After about 800m, take a sharp left onto a narrow road, and after another 600m, take a right turn onto a path going through the forest. This path zig-zags up through the forest, until you go over a stile on your left that exits the forest. You now follow the path keeping the forest to your right, until you go through a gate on to the open mountain. You are now on a narrow path that swings to the right and then takes you to the summit. Turn left at the summit, and head straight back down to intersect the uphill route and then follow your route back to the finish.

| Mick Hanney | Apr 21, 11:28AM | Fair play Paul Tierney. Mr Versatility.. long and short distances, no bother. |
| Paul Tierney | Apr 21, 4:35PM | Peter, this is a brilliant course. Has a bit of everything, posssibly slightly too much road but that cant be helped and is more than made up for once you hit the forest and open mountain. Definately worth the trip down from the Pale. Mick, I think the long stuff is the way to go for me. Its easier keep your lunch in your stomach for a start:) |
