One lapper. Starts off on a gravel track, can be a bit narrow and congested but soon thins out. Middle section of the run is on wide tarmac paths. The final 1k is all downhill, initially on grass and again tarmac. Undulating, hill of doom at mile 1.

There's a short sharp climb on this one up a muddy gravel bank, Can imagine it being a bit iffy when wet!
Option for ice cream from a van at 1/3 way :-D

One lap course with a short out and back section partway around. Road shoes should be OK most of the time. Mixed terrain, very scenic. Use toilets at Tesco before you arrive. Ample parking at Boldmere Gate.

mix of trail and road, two very testing hills but great down hill finish. Toilets are an issue if you're female and shy!! some cows about. very friendly, very scenic and a little tougher than some.

An interesting mix of terrain, difficult trainer choice in poor weather. Road shoe is fine if it has been dry for a while. Some little climbs to temper your pace.

Mixed terrain, one lap, plenty of gradient involved including the "hill of doom". Can be very congested for most of the first km but some nice scenery and worth a visit.

Great single loop course, definitely undulating but with a fantastic down hill flying run to the finish

Lovely single lap course undulating around the park mainly on wide paths but with a few very short off road sections . Toilets & parking at the leisure centre 800m away from the start finish area
