Advice for Spectators

We like to encourage spectators along the route to cheer on our runners. However, the mere geography of the course can make this very difficult. If you are planning to watch the race, please make sure to be at your location in plenty of time and try to avoid driving on the course when you are likely to encounter large numbers of runners.

When planning your vantage point, it is worth remembering that the will be closed from 10:00am until about midday (it is a rolling closure following the last runner). There is also diversion in place in and the Llanberis High Street is closed from Capel Coch road to the bypass for the duration of the race.

There are a number of cafes and pubs around the route that might be good spectator locations.

For those of you planning to stay in Llanberis to wait for the finishers, you will find plenty to do. Try the village website for ideas http://www.llanberis.org/

We don't encourage people to follow the race on bikes. The added traffic can cause problems. We have a number of official support cyclists and they will have special high vis jackets on so will be easily identifiable.

We hope you enjoy your day in Snowdonia. If you need any more information, just drop us a line [email protected]
