The Red Rose route crosses technical, exposed moorland and passes through Hebden Bridge, Heptonstall, parts of the Calderdale Way and Pennine Way, Widdop Reservoir, Worsthorne, Townley Park in Burnley, Cliviger, Gaddings Dam and Stoodley Pike before returning to HQ. The White Rose route runs via Walshaw Moor toward Haworth, includes road sections into Keighley, Lund Park, Bingley golf club, Cottingley Woods, Hallas Bridge waterfalls, Doe Park reservoir, Ogden Water and a final checkpoint at Leadbeater Dam. For the 100 km this final checkpoint serves as the only course cut-off.
