These enchanting wooded areas are filled with towering trees and vibrant flora, offering a picturesque backdrop as you navigate the trails. The sights and sounds of nature will accompany you as you pass the tranquil lake, a highlight of the route.
As you approach the finish line, the sense of accomplishment builds, and you’ll be greeted with a warm welcome back to the estate. Upon completing the race, you’ll receive a well-deserved medal and a finish line prize, a fitting reward for your efforts in this beautiful and historic setting.
