Mole Valley parkrun (at Denbies Wine Estate, Dorking)

A total of 316 parkrunners took part.

Course Description

This is a 1 lap course. Starting to the right of the main building, the course first does a clockwise loop of the small field. It then turns left and heads up the hill for approx. 600m. At the top of the hill, turn left and cross a concrete path, continue straight ahead for approx. 700m along an undulating track and then turn right at the next path. Continue until the path bends left down a steep short hill and then follow the path around to the left and head back towards Denbies where you will be treated to stunning views across the vineyard and to Box Hill. At the junction follow the main path, again crossing the concrete path and then turn right, re-joining the outward route where you will return to the field for the finishing straight.

The course is undulating with the first half being mainly uphill and the second half downhill. Much of the track is reasonably narrow due to the path being between hedgerows and the vines. Please do not run between the vines and take care to avoid the metal wires at the end of each vine.

The course may not be appropriate for pushchairs, buggies, and prams, please contact the team in advance to discuss its suitability.
