Route details

There is a small car park at the bottom right corner and a larger car park a few hundred metres away at the main Netherdale car park. It is a flat loop around grass football and rugby pitches. People do play football and rugby, and walk their dogs, but it is usually pretty quiet so a great place for a session or soft surface recovery run.
