Notes

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)

The forest is mostly flat, so 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 5 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!

Curragh specific notes:

Parking is on grass at the Sunnyhill end of the Curragh, google maps: https://maps.app.goo.gl/Hmu3YS17puC1Co1h7
Courses will be mostly confined to this end of the overall Curragh map. The long course may cross the hollow road, in which case be mindful of sporadic traffic.
