Terrain Description

Map is A4 (possibly A3 for longest courses) at 1:10,000 scale, updates early 2015. There is no legend on A4 maps. Courses will be overprinted on waterproof paper or be bagged.

Over the years, with successive thinning of parts, the area has become more runnable, probably more so than the map indicates. There are a number of horse rides across the area and a network of small paths.
