Summary | The competition area consists of 3 separate woods (Glenabo, Coolroe and Knockananig). There will be 2 separate starts and 2 separate finishes Start 1 is for the longest and shortest courses (1,2,4,5,10,11,13,14). The longest courses use all 3 woods. The shortest courses use Knockananig wood only. Start 2 is for the rest of the courses (3,6,7,8,9,12). These use Glenabo wood only. Both Glenabo and Coolroe wood have a mixture of native deciduous forest and coniferous sections between them. Runability varies very significantly so the optimum route choice will involve careful navigation to avoid slower areas and areas with undergrowth. Knockananig wood is primarily a large scale coniferous plantation, a lot of which has recently been thinned, but it has a range of features like boulders, walls, rides and paths and some variation in the vegetation in the parts which are used. |
