The Cardiff route is a double 5k lap, which takes a scenic tour around the stunning Bute Park in the heart of the City of Cardiff, following the River Taff into neighbouring Pontcanna Fields. This course allows participants to really explore Pontcanna Fields before returning into Blackweir. Lush grassy, flat terrain and such close proximity to the attractions of Cardiff Centre make this an extremely popular event with a fantastic atmosphere.
