Hailed by many as the most iconic Adventure Race in Ireland. This course takes you along the Spink Run over the Sally Gap, along the challenging Djouce run and kayaking on the magical Lough Dan.
There is a choice of three courses WAR, the shorter WAR-Sport and WAR Mini option which avoids the Spink summit run. The mini competitors will run a loop, starting at the Transition area in the upper Lake Car Park, they will run on the north side of the Lake to the miner’s village and return. From this point on they follow the same route as the WAR Sport. Come test your endurance in one of the most spectacularly beautiful parts of Ireland.
