Ripon 10

The race, which starts and finishes on Hell Wath Nature Reserve at Panthers FC, is a hilly but picturesque course that leads the runners from Hell Wath around the Studley Royal Estate with beautiful views of Ripon and the stunning, surrounding countryside. The race follows a one-lap, scenic, multi-terrain course of approximately 10 miles. It is an undulating route mainly on footpaths through parkland. The race starts on Hell Wath Nature Reserve, goes up Whitcliffe Lane onto public footpaths through Mackershaw Woods, and then via the Seven Bridges and Plumpton Lane it travels through Studley Roger Deer Park, emerging at the obelisk before returning to Hell Wath Nature Reserve via Fountains Lane and Whitcliffe Lane. The course is not suitable for wheelchairs, prams or pushchairs. A route map will be displayed at Race HQ on the day.
