Event Details
2 LAKES, 2 DAMS, 3 FANTASTIC TRAILROUTES!nnThe 2 LAKES TRAIL HALF MARATHON, 10k & 5k events are basedhigh up on the Denbigh Moors, taking in the reservoirs of Alwen andLlyn Brenig. The routes stay wellabove the 300m contour throughoutand take in lakeside tracks, moretechnical woodland sections, moorland paths and some fast dirt track and minor road. The race HQ is the excellent Brenig Visitor centre, and here you can find registration, parking, excellent facilities(lovely cake!!) and the start/finish area a short walk away.nnAll finishers will receive their event-specific medal at the finish line.nnJenny Douglas did the Half Marathon in 2016, and said ‘I was definitely having fun there – my favourite race to date!’nnThe route for the HALF MARATHON enjoys a gentle start alongside the Eastern shore of Llyn Brenig, and crosses the moorland at the Northern end of the lake to begin a loop around to theNature Reserve and the eventuallythe footbridge at the Alwen Reservoir. An ascent to over 400m then follows and the run back to cross the spectacular Alwen dam, and thefinal climb to the Brenig dam andthe finish line! A beautiful HalfMarathon route – one that’ll staywith you :-)nnThe new 2 LAKES 10kroute starts at the finish area for the Half, and makes it’s way across the dam, and at the far end takes a right turn to descend towards Pentrellyncymer. After a reallynice, fast moorland section, the route crosses the road and you’ll soon meet the shores of the Alwen Reservoir. Across the dam here, andnow following the same approach to the finish as the Half route – with a fair amount of climbing to the downhill sprint to the finish,where you started!nnThe 2 LAKES 5kenjoys a fast start across the Brenig dam, and descends briefly onthe 10k route, before branching off left into the Clocaenog Forest,on winding tracks, before eventually emerging beside the lakeshore for a refreshinhg finish alongside
