This is an urban map, so shoes with metal spikes are not recommended - lots of running on footpaths and tarmac.
There will be traffic on some roads and competitors should bear this in mind when sending juniors on longer courses - shadowing may be required/recommended.
Whether you are a complete novice, a family, or a seasoned veteran, there is a course to suit:
The Adventure Course is suitable for families or beginners.
The Medium course is suitable for experienced orienteers and adult beginners and improvers who can cope with some off-track forest running/walking.
The Long course is suitable for adult improvers and experienced people who are good at map reading and compass skills.
Three (3) courses are planned as follows:
Adventure (~3km)
Medium (~5km)
Long (~7km)
Climb is negligible on all courses.
Entry fees are the usual:
Adults: €8 / person
Children: €4 / child
Student: €5 / student
Unwaged: €5 / person
OAP: €5 / person
Family Discount: €20 (Maximum of 2 Adults and no more than 8 family members / family)
If you're not a member of a club, and would like to join CNOC on the day, we're offering free membership for the first year (see more on cnoc.ie)
As with all recent events, we prefer pre-entry via the online entry system.
There will be limited entry on the day (by the number of spare maps we print).
Groups should pre-enter to ensure maps are available.
If you need to hire an SI card, we also rent them for €2, to be returned at the finish. Lost cards cost €40 to replace!
