Tollymore Trail Marathon Events
The Tollymore Trail Marathon Events are held annually in Tollymore Forest Park, Northern Ireland, with routes that pass through the Mourne Mountains. The event began in 2010 and features off-road courses across forest tracks, riverside trails, narrow single-track paths, steep climbs, and varied rugged terrain. The courses also pass historic landmarks, woodlands, and scenic river sections.
The programme includes multiple race categories and formats. The event welcomes first-time trail runners and experienced endurance athletes and offers competitive recognition through ITRA points for longer distances.
Distances and categories:
- 10 km Race supporting Cancer Focus NI
- 10 km Cancer Focus Challenge Walk
- Half Marathon (one 21 km loop)
- Full Marathon (two 21 km loops)
- Ultra Marathon (three 21 km loops)
The 10 km race and the Challenge Walk raise proceeds for Cancer Focus NI. The marathon and ultra carry ITRA points, with the ultra earning two points and the marathon earning one point. Sponsors and partners listed for the event include NeutriLean, Glens of Antrim Crisps providing finish-line snacks, Mourne Mountains Brewery supplying post-race refreshments, and Basalt Six providing prizes for category winners.
