Glendalough Trail Run 8.5k

The Fighting Blindness Glendalough Trail Run on 18 October 2025 includes a long and short course with scenic, challenging routes in the Wicklow Mountains.

The 15km long course has only ~500m of the race on tarmac surface and there is approximately 600m of very mucky trail with tree branches to negotiate. Total elevation gain/loss of the 15km trail is ~450m.

The shorter 8.5km route is a non-competitive event aimed at slower joggers and walkers and avoids the mucky section.

This event is in aid of the Fighting Blindness Charity.
