New for 2025, introducing the Sprint Monte!

Route Overview: Fancy a speedy c. 5km run? You’ll start at the Mountcharles Community Centre, go downhill past the Chapel, turning right, watch out for a very steep descent past the Hall Demesne wall. Enjoy the views of Donegal Bay as you turn right onto the shore road and make your way from the little pier, on past the big pier and get ready for the uphill past Salthill Gardens. Loop back right to Mountcharles and finish at the Community Centre, to soak up the race day atmosphere. The route is the same as the Little Monte.
