A comprehensive risk assessment will have been carried out by the organiser, but participants take part at their own risk and are responsible for their own safety during the event.
Please park on adjacent streets.
Registration/Start/Finish are all inside the park (What3Words: salt.busy.spike) just uphill from the main gate on Bradford Road, Shipley.
We will be ready to see you from 1:00 pm
When you arrive you will receive a “Dibber”, an electronic timing chip, given the opportunity to look at the map before you start and an AIRE coach will be on hand to assist to talk you through what to do and answer any questions. The course start will be adjacent. There you receive the map for your course, and you can start at intervals in your own time.
You can start at any time up to 2.30 pm.
We suggest a cash donation of £1 per person for the day.
For youngest competitors we provide 3 short courses. Do 1 and we tend to find a lot of the kids end up doing all 3!
For older children and those that have attended earlier events in the series there will be a medium course.
For adults and experienced juniors there will be an "Odds and Evens" course using all the available control sites.
Open parkland and large wooded area.
Dogs on a short lead please. Please clear up any mess.
