The Routes
The One and Only 5k
Milton Keynes Village
From the original Milton Keynes (village), a nice little blast around this scenic route. Mostly on paths around the Parks Trust land along the river and even through another Village of Woolstone.
The Three Villages 8k
Oakridge Park
The first part through the village of New Bradwell gets you to the riverside run, taking you to Haversham before finding a nice little route to Old Haversham. The remainder of the way back is simply lovely, even an old ruin church at Lower Stanton to keep the interest high.
The Duke and Duchess 6k
Bow Brickhill Woods
If you have never run up the ‘woods’ before, then you are in for a treat. Most local runners over the years have loved running up in the heathland of the Brickhills.
Deer Woburn 10k
Woburn
A tough, muddy, pretty and historic route around the wonderful Woburn Abbey and surrounding countryside. Take in the majestic Deer as they monitor your every move, make sure you stay on the outside of the Safari park, or this could be your fastest run ever.
Arm to Cosgrove 7k
Cosgrove
This run from Wolverton Mill takes you to the lovely village of Cosgrove via the now disused ‘Buckingham Arm’ Canal. You return along the Grand Union Canal, crossing the iron Trunk Aqueduct and through the famous cattle creep to finish along the Great Ouse river.
Escape to Whaddon 6k
Shenley Wood
A lovely run on the western edge of Milton Keynes, heading across to the lovely village of Whaddon. It’s a challenging but beautiful climb while being overlooked by the majestic Whaddon manor. A quick trip around the lovely church, then head back via the North Bucks way.
