Route
Enjoy a beautiful circular walk around the grounds of Harewood - recognsed as being in the top ten most historic homes in the country. You'll pass through stunning woodland, open fields often filled with deer, and enjoy panoramic views across the Fish Pond to the house itself before crossinng the finish line to claim your well-deserved medal.
Accessibility
The fully signposted route is mostly on hardstanding path with some smaller sections on woodland terrain and grass. The route is accessible for both wheelchairs and pushchairs with assistance. However, please be aware that this route does include a moderate to steep climb on tarmac surfaces and may not be suited to all.
There will be volunteer marshals along the route to support you if needed.
Dogs
Dogs are welcome but must remain on a lead at all times.
Facilities
There are event toilets available next to the event village (including accessible loos).
Food and drink will be available to purchase within the event village and you are welcome to bring your own refreshments.
How to get here
Frequent buses run from Leeds and Harrogate to Harewood village. It's then a 15 minute stroll through the grounds to the Event Village.
If driving, once at Harewood village, continue through the main gate into Harewood Estate. Event Marshals will direct you to the parking area adjacent to the Event Village.

I couldn’t recommend this walk enough for families young and old! We chatted, played with the kids and enjoyed being out in the fresh air for a change. It’s one of the easiest ways to give back to yourself, your mental health and your physical wellbeing.
