The course
The route is a 10-mile loop that covers beautiful grass trails through ancient woodland, limestone tracks, quiet estate roads and a stretch along a disused Victorian railway line. It also skirts around the picturesque estate lake before reaching the start/finish point in front of the castle itself. We class this as an ‘undulating’ trail course with no major hills to contend with, making it ideal for those new to ultra-running, looking to take the next step to a longer distance or aiming for a PB. The course will be fully marked. Trail shoes are recommended, especially in damp/wet conditions Elevation 550ft per lap.
Parking
Free parking on-site for competitors. There is a £5 per car charge for spectators.
