Route Introduction

Last Updated: 09/08/2022

Raleigh Challenge – Wilson Trail

  1. The Event route comprises Sections 1 to 6 of the Wilson Trail at a total distance of around 42 km. On the day of the Physical Race, there will be Checkpoints (CP) at the end of each section for recording the arrival time of participants and providing water and/or sports drink. There are also Sub-Checkpoints (SCP) at designated locations for recording time and showing direction without supply of food and beverage. (Note: A small section of the Event route deviates from the original Wilson Trail. Please refer to Route Details.)
  2. Distance posts are located along the Wilson Trail approximately each 500 metres. There is a number (such as W004, W represents Wilson Trail) and a Grid Reference printed on every distance post. Participants should pay attention to the number on these posts during practice and competition. In case of emergency, the number and Grid Reference may help the Organizer to locate your position efficiently.
