Course information
The Crystal Palace 5K course is a single lap mainly on tarmac, and runs in and around the grounds of the park. There is a small section that runs on grass up by the ruins, but can be avoided. It has a few small hills along the way but it is a lovely route. Oh, and watch out for the dinosaurs!
Meeting point
The meeting point is just down from the memorial bell in the main park.
Due to the ongoing COVID-19 situation, we will be operating a staggered start time in 2021 to ensure your safety on event day. Additional start times may become available as or when needed.
