The National Adventure Marathon is back at the Caragh Lake starting on May 15th 2009.

This event is run by Cappanalea OEC which is situated in a perfect wilderness location on the mountainous shores of Caragh Lake. The centre which was established in 1981, has many years of experience in running the National Adventure Marathon.

The unique format of NAM, which was one of the first adventure races in Ireland, quickly earned itself a reputation for being a very well organised and challenging event covering all wilderness areas Cork and Kerry.

NAM includes Navigation and Orienteering, Mountain Biking, Paddling, Mountain Running as well as Team Initiatives and Rafting.

The National Adventure Marathon is scheduled to take place on the Friday 15th—17th May 2009.

The all inclusive cost per team is €1,200. The NAM event is limited to a total of 14 teams.
