Details

Description: The woods are a mixture of mature plantation and deciduous woodland, with lots of features to keep the navigation interesting. Safety:There are many old mining areas consisting of pits and steep slopes in the terrain, please take care if you need to negotiate any of these. Blue and Green courses cross a minor road, please be aware that although very quite, this road has recently been re-opened to traffic. The area is also popular with walkers and mountain bikers, some of which may appear in unexpected places. Remember to report to the finish, even if you do not complete your course.
