The course goes off the main path throughout the course and is primarily on grass, this can become boggy due to poor weather conditions. Throughout the park there is uneven terrain which the course route goes through. However, for spectators, the park has paths throughout and offers a range of spots to view the participants at different parts of the course. Please be aware that the event parking is on grass.
