Route information
This fantastic course is set in the Coquet Valley, one of the most remote and beautiful parts of Northumberland.

The half marathon route weaves its way through the Coquet Valley, passing through Great Tosson and Little Tosson to reach the village of Hepple. Runners then loop back to finish in Rothbury.
The 10k goes as far as Great Tosson and Newtown before turning back, passing Rothbury Golf Club and the River Coquet to finish in Rothbury.
