Cambridge Coe Fen
West Anglian Orienteering Club (WAOC) welcomes you to our Cambridge Coe Fen MapRun event.
Details
Mainly parkland running around Lammas Land, Sheep's Green and Coe Fen with excursion into Newnham midway. Fen Causeway must not be crossed except at the marked crossing points. You may run along the pavements at the side of Fen Causeway. Streams (and the rivers!) must not be crossed except using bridges. Watch out for marshy areas as marked on the map, these areas may not be pleasant to cross in winter.
Parking
There is on-street pay and display parking on Newnham Road, Queens Road (the Backs) and the Lammas Land car park. There is free parking every day of the week on Barton Road before 11am and after 2pm in specific bays. Parking on Newnham Road adjacent to Lammas Land is free on Sundays.
Course: Cambridge Coe Fen
4.0 km line
This is a Line course which means you need to get all 20 controls in order. The fastest time wins.
As the crow flies, the distance is 4.0 km. It is likely you will travel quite a bit further; in an urban environment, the quickest route may be as much as 50% longer.
