One of our Christmas Lights Spunch Series - We will aim to place a small selection of SpunchPoints at some of the more impressive Christmas Light displays so that you can see the town at it's festive best!  Along with discovering the town's urban network and snickets, there will also be some more adventurous off-road parts through park, woodland and other green corridors.

Using a specially prepared 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.

A return to New Mills, which never fails to disappoint!  There will be both very-hilly through to less-hilly options!  Good running / walking on a mixture of underfoot conditions from tarmac to off-road paths*.  There will be something for everyone and even locals will likely discover new paths and places!
