Carn Owen is a great site for adventure with lots of nooks and crannies amongst the rock outcrops on the hillside with fabulous views towards Nant y Moch and the coast.
Ideal for all ages and abilities, with a range of courses to choose from, for runners, walkers and also for families with children!
The yellow (1.6km with 70m climb)and orange(2.0 km with 80m climb) courses stick to the lower slopes and are ideal for beginners and improvers.
The Light green (3.1 km with 130m climb) and Blue (4.9 km with 260m Climb) both go onto the higher ground where accurate navigation is required amid the many rock features there
Please do ask at registration if you would like any help and advice re which course to do. Its our fourth event of the year and a chance to gain some points in the MWOC league tables.
The great views on a sunny day also mean it can be really exposed on a windy and wet one so please come prepared whatever the weather and bring a whistle. mean it can be really exposed in Weather can be very variable.
The farmer will not have sheep on the area and so dogs that are under full control will be allowed.
