FEARmanagh 2024

FEARmanagh, the Fermanagh Endurance Adventure Race Entries Opening Soon!!

The adventure race, organised and funded by Fermanagh and Omagh District Council, was created in 2013 as a ‘home grown’ event, with the aim of showcasing the best of the rugged natural landscapes in West Fermanagh.

The event has proven a huge hit on the adventure race circuit and the Council is preparing to welcome around 300 participants to Derrygonnelly again this year on Saturday 28 September 2024.

In 2024, as part of a commitment to “Greening our Event”, the Council is taking practical actions to counteract and minimise the event’s environmental impact. We hope that participants and their family and friends will continue to support us in making these changes as we work towards achieving sustainable communities and a sustainable environment.

Starting and finishing at Derrygonnelly Community Centre, FEAR features trail running, cycling and kayaking, over a long course of 74 Km, or what is described as a ‘short’ course of 35 Km.

Fermanagh and Omagh District Council organise the event, in partnership with Cuilcagh Lakelands UNESCO Global Geopark, with the support of a number of Fermanagh ‘Blue Light’ Services, including the Police Service of Northern Ireland, Royal National Lifeboat Institute and the Irish Red Cross.

The event could not go ahead without the support of the local community and in particular the efforts of Derrygonnelly & District Community Partnership and Derrygonnelly Community Centre.
