Course Description
This area makes an ideal race venue. The trails offer varying distances on packed and and grassy surfaces. However, there are some stretches of loose flints. Dog boots should not be needed for fit feet.
The terrain is mostly flat although we will attempt to please all by finding a hill and a puddle if possible! The longest possible trails will be set out on Friday, however exact distances and trails will be dictated by weather conditions over the race weekend. Any trail changes will be posted on the race notice board.
There are ample parking facilities within a very short distance of the start and finish areas. Competitor and spectator’s parking areas will be signposted.
