1/2/3 hour score course options (choose on the day itself).  Parking, Bag Drop, Loos, Start, Finish, Food & Drink all at or near the Summer Fun Day in the School grounds.  Daylight countryside Spunch for runners & walkers from the delightful village of Hollinsclough in its spectacular Peak District setting including the Chrome Hill ridge.  Family friendly & dog friendly too. 

Our second Spunch event based in Hollinsclough, this time in conjunction with the local school Summer Fun Day.  

Run, jog or walk - suitable for trail runners, park runners, road runners, fell runners, adventure racers, orienteers, walkers, newcomers, and families alike.  3k to 33k, the choice is yours!   Great for families and friends to do together.  Suitable for all ages and abilities - lots of help available for newcomers.  Newcomers & locals are always especially welcome.  Dogs are welcome, but must be kept on a lead and under control at all times.

Start at your convenience anytime between 11am & 1pm.  (Last start for the 3 hour course 12pm).  Registration open from 11am. 

Navigating with an enlarged and enhanced 1:12,500 OS Explorer map, visit as many checkpoints as you can in the time available, S-punching using the MapRun app on your smartphone, Garmin or Apple Watch.

Explore the area's rich network of excellent trails, paths and lanes.  You can expect some hills in parts of the area - for which you will be rewarded with some great views.  Will you head north onto Chrome Hill and Hollins Hill?  Or south to Hollinsclough Moor.  Maybe west up the Dove valley towards Tenterhill.  Even locals will likely discover new paths and places!  

Great food and drink available back at the School Fun Day after your run / walk.  Hopefully the weather will be kind and we can enjoy an afternoon in the sun.  The Fun Day is very family-friendly.  Well behaved dogs welcome too - there is even a pet show! 

The venue is set in the upper reaches of the Dove Valley, just south of Buxton (15 mins) and just north of Leek (20 mins).  It is particularly convenient for Leek, Biddulph, Congleton, Macclesfield, Disley, New Mills, Whaley Bridge, Chapel-en-le-Frith, Buxton, Bakewell, Matlock & Ashbourne etc.

You can expect the route options to cover off the highlights of the area, be they good views, the nicest paths or route choice dilemmas!

With around 60-80 Spunchpoints to go for - how many will you bag?

Hope you will come along and give it a go.
