Lovely hilly course with quite a gain in height between the start and the finish. Some hard pack but also trail-ey stuff through the woods. Steep descent to be taken with care!

A very special parkrun in Wepre Park, Connahs Quay- CH54HL. Car park, cafe & toilets on site. 1.5 loops along the river followed by 2 loops through woodland. Lots of ascent (500ft) with a downhill finish. Rewarding views & lots of encouragement.

Allegedly one of the top 3 or 4 hardest in the country. Short steep hill twice, Moderate hill twice, long drag uphill twice. Start well below the finish so less descent than ascent, and the descents are steep. Decent trail paths and super pretty.

Hilly. 99% off road, but decent surfaces. 2 small laps with a hill twice. then 2 big laps with the big hill and the steep downhill twice. Worth 2+ minutes over a flat course.

New course now, but definitely still hilly. Park in the overflow carpark as you enter the park. The briefing is by the top car park and then walk down to the start. Road shoes ok, I'd bring trail trainers just in case for particularly wet days

Hilly but beautiful. Well worth a trip. Free parking, toilets and cafe.

Trail route, two short loops then two long loops, lots of short hills, decent surface. Friendly and well written marshalled and signposted. Parking, café and toilets on site. Not a PB course.
