Arrowe Park 5-Miler 2026

The Arrowe Park 5-Mile multi terrain race takes place on Sunday 12 July 2026 at Arrowe Park, Arrowe Park Road, Wirral CH49 5LW. The event is for entrants aged 12 to 89 on the day and has an entry fee of £25. Refunds are not accepted; transfers are allowed.

The course runs across woodland trails, grassy paths and maintained parkland.

The route is usually well marked and weaves through tree lined paths and open spaces within the park.

Event facilities include on site toilets at the start and finish, a water station on the course and at the finish, chip timing via Nifty Entries, a bespoke RaceWirral/Arrowe Park 5m medal and a goody bag for finishers. Parking is available at the Cherry Orchard/Golf Club entrance. Young and vulnerable participants must be supervised by a legal parent or guardian while on the course.
