Course information

The Welwyn and Hatfield Pretty Muddy route is set within the grounds of the beautiful Stanborough Park and includes a number of uphill and downhill grassy slopes, as well as three shallow river crossings - so be prepared to get wet, as well as muddy!

There will not be any water refill stations along the course so if you require water during the event, please remember to bring your own reusable water bottle already filled up. You will be able to refill this at the refill station when you finish.

Please arrive 15 to 20 mins before your start time so that you are prepared and ready to go on time.

Our courses have been measured with a measuring wheel. This is the most accurate measurement method and may not always correspond with digital tracking apps and watches.

Meeting point

The start line is on the south side of the park, behind the boating lake reception.
