DIRECTIONS

Take Junction 2 off the N40. Once off the N40 follow signs for Curraheen Village – do not take the road to the greyhound stadium. Turn off the roundabout near Marymount Hospice for Curraheen. After 800m the orienteering event will be signposted on the right before you enter Curraheen village.

Please exercise due care approaching and entering the grounds from the city side. This narrow road can be very busy at rush hour.
