Thurso parkrun

The course

The course is 5k long. The course is at Thurso Boating Pond, Thurso. The course is run entirely on concrete paths. 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

“I arrived in Thurso by train for a day out. I had a plan for a good circular walk which would take me past this boating pond. I thought this was a lovely location, but then it was a really nice day. The pond itself…”Allan MacIver · 5 stars

“Nice park. We only went for wife's Parkrun but looks a good place to spend time with kids or just a stroll.”craig strachan · 5 stars
