About The Session

Running the Jesmond Dene Parkrun course as a time trial. Note this route is undulating.

For those unfamiliar with the route the start and finish point is the same place. Head through the gates to Jesmond Dene from Armstrong Bridge, down the hill but keep on the top path (do not go down to the red path), go through the tunnel and the start/finish point is about 50m after the tunnel where there is a fallen tree.

Run through Jesmond Dene on the top path following a route down onto the red path, over the first bridge and around the picnic field, over the bridge again and up the 21 steps and steep hill to Paddy Freemans field. Once at the top do one clockwise loop of Paddy Freemans field and onto the smaller field/play area/lake where you will do two loops. On the 2nd loops come off the top path dropping down back into the dene where it is a downhill finish back to the start area.

This is usually a quiet route but please watch out for members of the public, cyclists and dogs. We do no have right of way.
