Kinsale Santa Dash 5k Start Direction
Starting outside the amusement arcade on the Quay, the course heads south towards the Trident Hotel, turning right, and right again, onto Lower O'Connell St. The section along Lower O'Connell St and Main St. will be familiar to many, as the finishing section of Belgooly AC's Kinsale 5, held each August Bank Holiday weekend.

The 1k Mark is outside Giles Norman Photography, on Main St.
Kinsale Santa Dash 5k - 1M Mark

Kinsale Santa Dash 5k - 2k Mark
The 2k mark is in the centre of the mini-roundabout by Kinsale Community School, and the long gradual downslope after the hill will be most welcome.

The 3k Mark is just after the turn onto the R606 road alongside the Bandon river Estuary.
