Details
| Description: | errain: Despite the name, 90% of Aislaby Moor is runnable, self-generated and unmanaged broadleaf woodland. There are some open areas that are infested with heather and bracken that will make for slow running. Much of the area is gently sloping, but some courses will encounter the sides of old quarry workings where the famous Aislaby Stone, used in many old sandstone buildings, has been quarried for centuries. Important notes Please be very careful when running close to the quarry edges, where there are many high crags and some very steep slopes. The longer courses may cross Aislaby Lane, which is normally a very quiet minor road. Please take great care. Depending on final planning, the longer courses may also use some grass fields. There are bike paths in the area. For your own safety and theirs, please be alert for speedy mountain bikers. Also, please note that, for the sake of clarity, the many mountain bike paths on the sides of the old quarries have not been mapped. The bike paths between the quarries have been mapped, but new ones can appear at short notice, so some may not be on the map. As well as mountain bikers, the competition area is also used by dog walkers. As always, please be courteous to members of the public who are sharing this area with us. |
