The Routes

Hit the Walls

Hit the Walls 5K

City Centre

Although this is more urban escape than off-road wonder, you will be a history graduate by the end of this route. You’ll see Roman Gardens and run on the historic walls before passing under the iconic Eastgate Clock. You’ll hit the final stretch alongside the racecourse but will you win by a nose? Stewards enquiry incoming!

A Royal Affair

A Royal Affair 7K

Countess of Chester Country Park

A real “Royal Affair” awaits in the Countess of Chester Country Park which was opened by the then Duchess of Cornwall, now Queen Consort in 2014. A tranquil and beautiful space near the City’s hospital promotes health and wellness, despite being close to the City you will get a real feeling of escaping it all.

The Tourist

The Tourist 7K

Lime Wood Fields

You’ll run on the Millenium Greenway previously an old railway line from Mickle Trafford before heading towards the City Centre and taking in the sights. Although you might be too fast to latch onto a walking tour you will certainly have seen a few landmarks by the time you reach the finish.

Vitamin Dee

Vitamin Dee 9K

Duke's Drive

The start of this route skirts Chester’s River Dee through ‘The Meadows’ which is made up of grasslands and wetlands and adjourned with wildflowers. Just across the river from the city centre, it’s a haven for wildlife and a great place to get back to nature. The second part of the run takes you onto part of The Duke’s Drive which was originally a carriage drive to the Duke of Westminster’s Eaton Hall Estate.

Cheshire Pale Ale

Cheshire Pale Ale 9K

Delamere

Whilst slightly outside the City, Delamere Forest is just too stunning to leave out of this SixPack challenge. Some slight and not so slight inclines await, but we promise the views from Old Pale of the Manchester Skyline and Liverpool as well as seven different counties!

What a Waster

Gresty's Waste

The only thing that would be a “waste” is not taking on this route! On Cheshire’s Sandstone Ridge, this route drops down into Organsdale before reaching Primrosehill Wood, a quieter, southern outlier of Delamere Forest. Deep among the trees is a curious hidden gorge called Urchin’s Kitchen. It’s an atmospheric glacial melt-water channel formed at the end of the last Ice Age.
