Route information
Half Marathon
This route will take you across the moorland at the Northern end of the Llyn Brenig, before a loop of the Nature Reserve. Expect a short ascent before an enjoyable run across the Alwen Dam. Make sure to keep some energy in your legs before a snappy ascent to the finish.
10k
This route starts at the finish area for the Half and makes its way across the dam before heading to Pentrellyncymer. You will traverse the wide-reaching moorland on a nice fast course before running along the shore of the Alwen Reservoir. Follow the undulating course before a downhill sprint to the finish line.
5k
The 5k route has a fast start across the Brenig dam before descending briefly on the 10k route. The route then heads left on winding tracks into the Clocaenog Forest before eventually emerging beside the lakeshore for a breathtaking finish.
