Course
The course is NOT suitable for spikes. There are some hard gravel trails and tarmac on the course. A lighter trail shoe would be perfectly suited rather than an out and out fell shoe. The Junior Course is approx. 2.3 miles taking in forest tracks grass, short road and water crossing. The Senior Course is 4.6 miles which is two loops of the junior route so double the fun. Both courses start and finish at the same location. All competitors should cross access road responsibly.
Toilets
The nearest public toilets are at just off the Market Square in Duns. Toilets also available at Duns Rugby Club.
