The course
The course is 5k long. The course is in Parke Estate, near Bovey Tracey. The course is run on a mixture of trail paths, tarmac path and gravel cycle path. Some sections of the course may accumulate mud, leaves and puddles after rain. Dependent on availability, marshals will be at key sections of the course, or signs will be in place.
Please remember that the parkrun uses shared paths. For the continued success of the event, please give way to other park users. This won't hurt your time, it won't stop you from getting a PB and it will make sure everyone continues to enjoy the event.
Please, wherever possible walk, jog, cycle or use public transport when attending the event. If you do have to drive, please consider car-sharing to reduce our impact on both the environment and other park users. Please also watch out for other park users when arriving and leaving. Parking may be limited so try to arrive early.

What people say
“Beautiful circular route through the National Trust estate at Parke, Bovey Tracey, Devon. Mostly on hard tracks and paths but do treat this as a trail run. There are a couple of hills and it does get muddy in the…”Andrew Watson · 5 stars
“Very enjoyable park run, mostly forest running. Hilly though and not buggy friendly”Richard Lotter · 5 stars
