The Liffey Descent 2024 is now live!! The race will take place on Saturday 11th May 2024 along the iconic 32km route, tackling 10 weirs and taking in the stunning scenery Counties Kildare and Dublin have to offer. The race begins at 12:00pm from the world famous K Club in County Kildare, tracing the most spectacular sections of the River Liffey to finish at the Garda boat Club in Islandbridge, Dublin.<\/p>\n
In its new May date we are looking forward to another Liffey Descent with the best possible water levels and an experience to remember for all participants.
