Map Updated 1:10000 scale map with 5m contours and updated 2024. Maps are double sided for the longer courses. The main Arboretum buildings are out-of-bounds to competitors during your run. The Treetops Walkway (footbridge) is out of bounds during your run but will be used on the way to the start. All fences around the ‘Downs’ in the centre of the map will be marked with purple overprint and must not be climbed. To protect future use of the area please use the plentiful crossing points marked with the purple crossing point symbol. There will be one start for all courses approximately 800m from assembly.
