ROUTE CHANGE FROM 2021
As requested by the landowner, we have changed the route between CP1 and CP2. You no longer descend using the permissive path. Instead, retrace your steps from Stoodley Pike to the gate (GR 978 242). Head south to the next stile (GR 978 241) and follow the flagged route until you reach CP2 at Withins Clough Res (GR 978 229). The route is the same after this point.
Below is a list of the checkpoints that each runner have to visit…
