Description
The Gaelforce 10K Howth Trail Run offers participants an exhilarating journey through the picturesque landscapes of Howth, just a short distance from Dublin city. Starting beside the historic Howth Castle, the route ascends to the summit of Howth Hill, providing runners with sweeping views over Dublin Bay. The varied terrain includes grassy tracks, rough trails, and sealed roads, making it both challenging and rewarding.

The location is spectacular and off the beaten track, yet really close to Dublin city, making it accessible for both local and visiting runners.
