Derry City parkrun

The course

The course is 5k long. The course is at City Centre, adjacent to the River Foyle. The course is run on a mixture of paving and bitmac paths. Some sections of the course may accumulate mud, leaves and puddles after rain. Dependent on availability, marshals will be at key sections of the course, or signs will be in place.

Please remember that the parkrun uses shared paths. For the continued success of the event, please give way to other park users. This won't hurt your time, it won't stop you from getting a PB and it will make sure everyone continues to enjoy the event.

Please, wherever possible walk, jog, cycle or use public transport when attending the event. If you do have to drive, please consider car-sharing to reduce our impact on both the environment and other park users. Please also watch out for other park users when arriving and leaving. Parking may be limited so try to arrive early.

“Great run while on vacation with my husband. We tried to find a race but were happy to find this great community run close to our stay. The run starts at 9:30am. If you have never participated in parkrun before, you…”Janet Saucedo · 5 stars

“Very nice route. U shaped, across the peace bridge. Come early for parking, or just park in the Sainsbury’s - I think. Also, be warned that there’s not a lot of walkers haha”Abigail Sinclair · 5 stars
