The Run Kilkee Half Marathon follows an out-and-back route that starts and finishes in Kilkee town, set along the Loop Head Peninsula in County Clare. The course is entirely on paved roads along the Wild Atlantic Way, offering views of the Atlantic Ocean and the surrounding sea cliffs. The terrain features a challenging, undulating profile, including a steady incline over the first 5km and various rolling sections before returning to the finish near the town’s horseshoe bay.
