This course lies in the eastern part of Ipswich, taking in the Waterfront, the Alexandra, Holywells & Landseer Parks and various residential areas. The marked 'Start/Finish' is at a path junction just to the north of The Stables in Holywell Park. Local parking may be on-street - IP3 0PQ takes you to the shops in Cliff Lane - but you may, of course, start at any of the checkpoints, whichever is most convenient, & plan your route from (& back to) there.
Although many sections of your route will take you through the parks & quiet residential areas you will also need to cross busy roads: caution is required & under 16s really must be accompanied by an adult.
