Timed Route

The route for the HALF MARATHON enjoys a gentle start alongside the Eastern shore of Llyn Brenig, and crosses the moorland at the Northern end of the lake to begin a loop around to the Nature Reserve and the eventually the footbridge at the Alwen Reservoir. An ascent to over 400m then follows and the run back to cross the spectacular Alwen dam, and the final climb to the Brenig dam and the finish line! A beautiful Half Marathon route - one that'll stay with you

The 2 LAKES 10k route starts at the finish area for the Half, and makes it's way across the dam, and at the far end takes a right turn to descend towards Pentrellyncymer. After a really nice, fast moorland section, the route crosses the road and you'll soon meet the shores of the Alwen Reservoir. Across the dam here, and now following the same approach to the finish as the Half route - with a fair amount of climbing to the downhill sprint to the finish, where you started!

The 2 LAKES 5k enjoys a fast start across the Brenig dam, and descends briefly on the 10k route, before branching off left into the Clocaenog Forest, on winding tracks, before eventually emerging beside the lakeshore for a refreshinhg finish alongside the lake.
