Marshalling and Route finding

The route is marshalled at important interchanges and most of the control points are manned. Elsewhere the route is only partially marked. While the event does not require specialised navigation skills you should make yourself familiar with the course using the information on this page.

Importantly the route is a fixed course not the shortest route between the controls. That mean no short cuts allowed!
