UPDATE: Top-4 things to know (Hi-res maps?)
The 5th edition of EcoTrail Wicklow is drawing near! In this newsletter we want to invite you to read about the four ‘hottest’ topics to know about ahead of race day:
-
Cut-off times
-
Sign-on and collection of race bib
-
Meet our aid stations!
-
Access to hi-res map
Will high resolution maps of the route be made available ahead of race day so I can recce the route?
East West Mapping have provided official maps for our four races:
- 19 km: coming soon!
- 30 km: coming soon!
- 46 km: coming soon!
- 80 km: coming soon!
The best printed map that may be used for reference is that for "Wicklow East" as supplied by East West Mapping
Please do not attempt to run the sections passing through private lands at any time unless they are on agreed public access routes as this could lead to our race losing access to these sections.
Specifically, you must follow only the waymarked path through Kilruddery Estate / Belmont outside of race day and you must enter the Powerscourt Waterfall park only through the gate lodge (where you must pay admission fee).
When in doubt, please stay out thanks!
Will this not impact my preparation?
No. Wicklow EcoTrail is marked and marshalled in such a manner to ensure local competitors do not have any salient advantage over international competitors.
