Courses
| Course description: | The area consists of mixed woodland in part on a steep slope (the shorter technical courses avoid the very steepest parts) and many tracks and paths to the north of the road, with semi open intricate quarry workings, surrounded by runnable woodland to the south of the road. The area is generally very runnable, but there are some areas of undergrowth, thick to impassable in places. Please wear appropriate clothing and footwear. Full leg coverings are strongly recommended. The steeper paths can be very slippery after rain. In wet conditions shoes with good grip will be essential on all courses. All courses will cross back from Twinberrow Woods to Breakheart Quarry at the same point, and the crossing will be manned. The road is generally quite quiet but please follow marshals instructions. PLEASE DO NOT RUN ALONG ROADS Map: 1:7,500 and 1:2,500 scale with 5m contour interval, updated by Paul Gebbett (BOK), autumn 2024. Green and Blue courses will have a double-sided map with the first part at 1:7,500 in Twinberrow Woods and the second half a micro sprint in Breakheart Quarry at 1:2,500 scale. Waterproof size A4 with courses overprinted. Loose control descriptions will be available. |
