Gaelforce 10k Howth
About the event
Experience the thrill and beauty of Ireland’s coast with the Gaelforce 10K Howth, the second leg of the Gaelforece 10K Trilogy. This challenging course winds through grassy tracks, rough trails, woodland paths, and sealed roads in a looped route that takes runners to the summit of Ben of Howth and back down again. The steep ascents up Howth Hill offer breathtaking views over Dublin Bay, making every step worth it for those who seek more than just a medal.
Runners will traverse diverse terrain, testing their endurance on both grassy fields and rugged trails before ascending the iconic hill. This 10K event is not only about pushing physical limits but also immersing in stunning natural scenery that Lonely Planet has dubbed one of its 'Epic Runs of the World.' Whether you’re participating as part of the trilogy or for a standalone challenge, Gaelforce Howth promises an unforgettable adventure.
Note: The race takes place on October 9, 2027.
