There are a number of rabbit holes and tree roots around the course so please be careful. Marshals will be strategically placed to guide and warn you around any major obstacles.

The park is open to the public and we do not have exclusive use. Therefore, please be aware of the potential for non-runners on the paths we are using. The route will be well marshalled, with all turns being manned and tape will be used to mark the way in-between marshal points. There are some major refurbishment works happening at the park this winter, so please give yourself a little extra time to arrive.

There is plenty of parking at the country park. The park has requested that people pay for their own parking. Payment machines are available in all car parks and accept cash, credit card or can be paid for using the Ringo App. Please avoid the small carpark adjacent to Go Ape and the start /finish field(4 spaces) because this is where the medical team will be situated.
