The Route

Your Santa Run 3km route will begin, at the basketball courts near the Grosvenor & Hilbert Park Cafe by the play area within the park. You will run along the walking and cycle paths in the park and around the wetland boardwalk.

You will then run up towards the woodland boardwalk and football pitch and then back to the bowls green. You will complete 3 laps of the park and then return to the basketball court to the finish, where you started from, completing a truly fantastic run!

No previous experience is needed for a run like this. The route is 3km and you can run, jog or walk. Santa in the City is a great way to get you into the festive spirit.
