The course is a one-mile loop around the edge of the park; the surface is mostly grass with a short paved section. The start area is by the duck pond on part of the Peace Mile. There are two car parks and two park entrances; the closest car park is just off the eastbound A40 near the Summertown Roundabout. Toilets are available in the park.
Distances held across the series include:
- 2 miles
- 3 miles
