Course and race details

The course passes through the estate’s parkland, formal and woodland gardens, and uses pasture fields, farm tracks and single-track woodland sections. The 5km route is a single lap; the 10km uses an altered second lap for variety. Trail shoes are recommended; the organiser notes the course can be muddy and uneven in places. There is a stream crossing with a bridged option.

The course will be marked with orange barrier tape, pin flags and coloured arrow signs; marshals will staff all critical turns and road crossings. One water station is provided for the 10km at the start of the second lap; water is available for 5km runners at the finish. Parking is on an estate field that may be muddy and sometimes holds livestock. Toilets will be available at Race HQ. A bar will serve hot and cold drinks and finishers may receive a post-race hot dog if ordered. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
