Dinish and meeting of the waters is a scenic area in the park which has a long path which the orange and light green course will stay close to. The more technical courses Brown, blue, green will be mainly in the open area of the map with some small parts of the woods being used. Course have been shortened to take into account the technical terrain in places. The terrain is generally runnable with some areas of high vegetation. Courses have been set to try avoid most of this. Full leg covering required due to ticks.
The shorter and less technical courses will focus on the easier wooded area and just of paths.
Hope to see you there.
