Course information
The Crawley course takes you on a journey through the beautiful Tilgate Park. The majority of the route is on pathways around the lakes and woodland paths. There are a few up and down slopes and the woodland paths can have some uneven surfaces.
Please arrive 30 to 45 minutes before your start time so that you are prepared and ready to go on time.
Meeting point
The start line is located on the grass between the Play park and Tilgate Lake.

Parking
Sections of the Crawley course that go through the woods are uneven, with lose gravel and some tree roots. We try to re-route as much as we can, but the weather can affect the terrain and the woodland areas can become a bit muddy in wet conditions. For this reason we deem this event as unsuitable for wheelchair users.
