Parking and registration
For 2023 a parking area has been opened up for us separate from the public access to the Alwen. Access to this parking is from the B4501 opposite the signposted road to Pentre-llyn-cymer. OS Grid Reference SH 963522 Google map link This will be signposted from the B4501 and there will be a marshal at the entrance to give you instructions.
On entering the car park area follow the signs until you come to a large turning circle at the end and then drive back down the track parking on the left facing the entrance. There will be a marshal to help you.
Entrance to the parking area will close at 11:20am before the race. Please make sure you leave the parking area before 2pm as the gate has to be locked when we leave.
Race HQ will be situated near the parking turn around point. This is where you will collect your race numbers and where toilets are available. There is a short marked footpath to the race course.
