Courses

Updates to all courses Easter 2022, to use new route out of the car park.

Lengths of courses shown are in straight lines between controls, and the estimates of times are for someone running to someone walking. Both will vary depending on your route choice and ability.  A Score course is to find as many as you can with penalties for lateness. Courses are of beginner standard as they avoid SSSI issues.

Groups of Beginners: The Star and Loop maps are for youth group leaders to support beginners. If plaques are missing, temporary ones need to be put in place.  Use Youth Leader Risk assessment Guide to be found on the Beacon Hill Lower-car park site which should be helpful.  If you have a large group, seek permission from Charnwood Borough Council as your activities may clash with works going on in the area.

Feedback: Do let us know about any damaged or missing control points, please use our Feedback Form However our volunteers may not be able to remedy this quickly.
