rhb Apr 2018 12:10pm, 29 Apr 2018 921 posts	0 rhb Q: I'm unlikely to enter big Peak races like Edale Skyline / Kinder Downfall but wouldn't mind running the routes. Before I chuck some £ Harvey's way for the maps, are there private land parts of these routes that are only opened up for the race?
Brig Apr 2018 12:32pm, 29 Apr 2018 358 posts	0 Brig Skyline is all footpaths, not sure about Downfall. If you go on race website and look at route details it usually says if a section is "race day only"
