Details
| Description: | The courses stay generally within the wooded areas, which are partly conifer plantation and partly mixed woodland. The grass and other vegetation is quite long in the rough open areas and only the Green course crosses this on a couple of legs. The other courses have short sections of taped routes. As there are few paths and tracks, Yellow course competitors need to be able to follow ruined walls and extraction lanes, mapped as narrow rides, in the woods. |
