Route Marking and mapping

All participants are expected to study the course prior to taking part and also are encouraged to download the GPX file for reference on the day should you become lost or disorientated. The route will also be waymarked on both the mountain and road stages. 

Route closure or diversion

Race management reserve the right to alter the course at any time in the interests of competitor, crew or public safety. Should the weather or mountain stage become dangerous an alternative plan B will be put into operation as an example. PSNI and Road Service will also have authority to change the course at any time in the event of roadworks or a traffic incident. It’s important that everyone in the event abides by the rules of the road at all times.

Be Prepared for the Mountains

Mandatory Kit List

When heading into the mountains, preparation is essential. The following kit is mandatory for your safety and the safety of others. While it may seem like a lot to carry, every single item serves a critical purpose in the event of an emergency. Remember—mountain weather can be unpredictable, and temperatures can drop suddenly. If you get injured, lost, or fall ill, this kit could make all the difference.

Why Is This Kit Essential?

While you may not use every item listed, the mountains are unforgiving, and conditions can change without warning. If you:

  • Take a fall 🩹
  • Get lost 🧭
  • Fall ill 🤒

You might need to wait for help—potentially in cold and wet weather. In those moments, being prepared can mean the difference between comfort and distress or even life and death.


Final Word – Safety First!

This kit isn’t just for your safety; it’s for the safety of your fellow competitors too. Make sure you have everything listed, check your gear before setting off, and be ready for any situation.

In the mountains, preparation isn’t optional—it’s essential.
