RUN ROUTE (approx 5.5km)
Start on the main track leading north from the Buzzard’s Nest Car Park. Follow the main track uphill. Turn right at the first track junction (Anderson Drive) then left at next junction (signed radio mast). Bear right at next track junction and continue uphill on the main track. After approx 800m turn left onto a firebreak in the forest and follow the marked route down through the forest to join the track. Turn left onto the track. Then turn right down a muddy path (forest break). Cross the next track onto the muddy walkers’ path. Follow this grassy path through a wall and continue across Kittlegary Hill. Bear left at the path junction and follow this grassy path uphill to the wall. Follow round to the right to join the track at the wall and continue until there is a gap in the wall on your left. Climb through this gap - watch out for the two fence wires above the wall – these will be clearly marked. Bear right and follow the short section of rough path through the felled forest to join a walkers’ path. Turn right onto this walkers’ path following this round the hill until you reach the Fort. At the Fort take a small path on your left trough the forest to the Roundhouse. Cross over the main track and join a path in the woods on the right of the track. Turn left onto this path which runs through the woods beside a fence. This path eventually leads onto the main track. Turn right and follow the main track back to the Buzzard’s Nest car park. Enter Transition which is on your right just before the car park.

BIKE ROUTE (approx 8km)
(Please take extreme care if checking out this route prior to the event as it uses paths meant for walkers – respect other forest users!!)

Exit from transition by turning left and follow the main track heading north from the Buzzard’s Nest Car Park. At the first junction turn right onto Anderson Road and follow this track climbing gradually until you reach the red route (Spooky Wood) climb. Turn left onto this red route zig zag climb (quite steep at the first zig zag). Continue up the climb until you reach the top of the wood where the path crosses a wall. Turn right immediately after the wall onto a grass track and continue to climb gradually. At the first track junction turn left (along the side of the forest) which leads up to the main track. Turn right (uphill) onto the main track. After about 200m take a left turn down a grassy fire break. At the bottom of the fire break turn left onto the Tower Walk (walkers’ path). Follow this path over the hill past the old fire tower and descend down to the main track. Cross over the track continuing on the walkers’ path and turn right onto the walkers’ path beside the wall. After about 300m turn left through a gap in the wall and follow a section of natural trail down through the forest. This meets a muddy track – turn right onto this track then left onto another short section of natural trail. This leads out onto Anderson Road. Turn right and follow this track. Take the Blue Velvet trail on the right through the wood until just before the crossing with the Tower walk path (wooden fencing). Bear right avoiding the wooden fencing onto the walkers’ path over the hill and descend down and turn right onto the track. Almost immediately turn left down a muddy path (fire break). Turn left at the bottom onto the track. Bear right off this track onto a section of natural trail then at the junction with the walkers path turn right and follow the trail round the back of the skills area. Note this path has a steep section just before it joins the forest track. Turn left onto the forest track and follow this to The Finish.
