Nostell Priory

Nostell Priory, nestled amidst 300 acres of undulating parkland in West Yorkshire, is set to host an exciting race that promises to be both scenic and enjoyable. On February 28th, runners will have the opportunity to explore this historic estate's picturesque trails and tracks.
The event offers two course options: a shorter route around 5km and a longer one stretching approximately 9km. Both courses wind through varied terrain, featuring gentle hills, serene woodland paths, and expansive grass vistas in front of Nostell Priory’s stunning Georgian country house. The landscape is dotted with charming landmarks such as the Obelisk Lodge and the lower lake, enhancing the overall experience.
While speed may not be the primary focus here, participants are encouraged to take their time, soak up the beauty around them, and perhaps even bring along a four-legged companion for an extra layer of fun. The undulating terrain adds variety to the run, ensuring that runners will enjoy both challenging ascents and invigorating descents.
For those who wish to track their performance, both distances are chip-timed, providing accurate results for all competitors.
Upon arrival at Nostell Priory, participants can expect convenient facilities including toilets and refreshments located within the stable yard. These amenities ensure that runners have everything they need during this delightful outing in one of England’s most charming estates.
