This is a difficult day run that has been done by several of my friends. In the planning phase for this coming summer I’ve put together this route. It is little known, really only by locals, so I’ve made this a public route for more people to enjoy.

All the best

Trail is well marked, excellent condition, except for the trees down. As everywhere there are many trees down across the trail but not too bad until the final 2 miles or so.
