The first mile is uphill through woods until reaching the upper slopes of The Beacon. The route then takes an anticlockwise loop, down the Rippon Avenue (of beech trees) and around the West Beacon Fields, enjoying the panoramic views across the Trent Valley to the Peak District beyond. The course then follows the same track back down the hill, through the woods with views that open out across the Soar Valley. After a couple of sharp bends, the course finishes on the field in front of the café. The route can get very muddy in places in wet weather.flooding the park. This is only likely to happen in winter after serious amounts of rain. #runparkrunwithme #parkrunwithme #runwithme #parkrun #parkrunuk #parkruntourism #parkruntourist #run #walk #jog #saturday #9am #runwalkjog #running #run #loveparkrun #strava #parkrunday #parkrunfamily #volunteer #lovevolunteering #exercise #c5k #beaconhill #beaconhillcountryparkparkrun #beaconhillcountrypark #run #running #nike #nikesponsorme
