This event is based at the Southern end of the beautiful Vale of Clwyd, from the popular and thriving Caravan Park & Cafe at Llanbenwch, near Ruthin.

The route is exactly 5k, multi terrain in nature, with a nice mix of minor road and trail to make for an interesting run in lovely surroundings, with fantastic views. The loop starts and finishes at the Caravan Park, utilises minor roads and public footpaths, with the odd short (gentle) climb, though for the most part you can stretch your legs on a pretty flat route!

The race will be electronically timed, there'll be category prizes, and all participants shall receive a medal for their efforts.

There is a wonderful Cafe to enjoy before and afterwards, great facilities for runners and spectators, and the Vale of Clwyd 5k will be a great way to kick off 2026.
