Dunkery Beacon
Open moorland with stunning views!
This is a score course, so you visit the controls you want. However, there is a rule - once you visit a control scoring 20 points you can't visit any more 10s, and once you visit a 30 you can't visit any more 20s or 10s.
It is tracked and scored using MapRun. Direct links to the courses if you are currently on your MapRun-enabled device are: 3hrs, 4hrs, 5hrs
You can choose to do a 3hr, 4hr, or 5hr course. They have the same map and controls, you are just choosing how long you are setting yourself to complete it. Whichever you choose, you will lose 5 points for every minute you are over.
If you are doing it in the first year (between september 2025 and August 2026) you will be entered into the event.
