It begins with a steep climb onto the trail, then flattens across moorland and continues over sandy and rocky trails and stone slabs. The return follows the same course, finishing with a descent back into the town centre. The course is marked with flags and includes a tail runner and a halfway checkpoint. Marshals are placed along the route. There is a water station at the turnaround point and another at the finish. A secure baggage store is provided.
