NB: Courses will be cleared of signs by route sweeper.

The route is a classic mixed terrain race, featuring forested footpaths, open moorland and some gnarly rocky trail, from Norsworthy towards Nun’s Cross.
But it bears left towards Princetown after the initial 2k or so, a deceptively uphill climb towards the footpath from Princetown and then picks up the disused railway line towards the quarries and bears south towards Ingra Tor before re entering the reservoir plantation and follows the leat home to the Discovery centre at Burrator. It’s the old Burrator Noir route, with an additional 2 mile section, to keep runners away from tarmac. It’s well worth the effort!

Functional running wear and appropriate off-road running shoes are presupposed for the trail race race. The course will be muddy, so grippy fell type shoes would be the best option. Road shoes will not be appropriate.

A head torch is required, as well as spare batteries and a long-sleaved top.

Dogs are only permitted for the road 10k - sorry.
