AMWA Kings Forest West Rally
Sat 27th November '21
- Sun 28th Nov '21
Location Info
The western section of King’s Forest mirrors the characteristics of the eastern side, with dense conifer plantations and long forestry access tracks. The area is widely used for equestrian and recreation activities.
Terrain and surface types remain consistent: mostly flat ground with sandy and gravel-based forestry roads.
Course Description
The terrain is mostly flat – though there are some deceptive Norfolk slopes to catch you out!!! The trail surfaces are extremely kind to the dogs, being mainly grass and compact sandy trails, however there may be some stretches of loose flints. Dog Boots should not be needed for fit feet. Exact distances will be dictated by weather conditions over the race weekend.
