About this parkrun

Trail path; out & back with a loop at halfway; mainly flat (14m elevation gain). (Dec 2018)
Sigh 22nd Dec 2018

All hard surfaces - although the railway track portion can get a little muddy in the wettest weather. Really friendly event team and a reasonable cafe for post-run coffee. Out and back to a loop (think lollipop).

multi terrain but good surfaces, out and back loop with a small hill. Can be congested.

An all off road run, it's a lollipop route: out, do a loop, and back. It was icy when I went - the little hill was fun! The start gets crowded!

Out and back on a bit of tarmac and trail, climb up to a canal towpath and a stedy downhill/flat finish. Scenic but can be crowded, especially when Thunder Run is on.

Lollipop route - out and back with a loop at halfway. Mix of old railway track and canal towpath. hill near the start, which gives a downhill finish. Cheeky hill halfway around... Loads of parking.

Out a d back with a loop. Congested at start. Mainly flat trail with one cheeky short(ish) hill. Cafe for coffee after.

Great course with a cheeky hill thrown in but doesn’t really bother you . Ample parking with a great cafe where you can get hot food and drink for very reasonable prices.

Can be quite crowded, nice route as long as you don't mind the odd hill. The long one on the way back is deceiving!

A lovely course, definitely crowded at the start as other people have commented. Loved the event, such a nice place to run. Maybe we were unlucky with it, but the cafe was pants. Would venture to nearby cafes instead of using the one near the finish.
