Mullaghcarn Giant

The Mullaghcarn Giant Race is a challenging 12km mountain running event held at Gortin Glens Forest Park near Omagh, Northern Ireland. Featuring a total ascent of 500 meters, the race includes summiting Mullaghcarn, the southernmost peak of the Sperrins at 542m, where the iconic Giant statue stands. The course descends through boggy terrain, making trail shoes highly recommended. Fully marked and marshalled, the race is part of the NIMRA Medium Distance Championship and the Ulster Championship. Limited to 200 participants aged 17 and over, the event emphasizes safety with mandatory kit requirements and uses electronic timing via SI cards.
