Private-land sections

Race organisers can secure temporary permission for private land. An event route or GPX does not establish permission outside the event.

Before you go

Check the exact start, junctions and turnaround for your chosen variant. Avoid combining distances from different descriptions.

Carry drinking water, footwear with grip and rain protection. Check weather separately from access. Wet ground, river crossings and exposed sections can change the character of an outing.

Use a complete offline map for navigation. This guide does not currently provide a downloadable GPX track.
