This flat, riverside circuit offers a relaxed run of just under 4 km, entirely on paved surfaces. The loop follows the banks of the River Trent, crossing it twice via the Wilford Suspension Bridge and the Waterside Bridge.

Running alongside the Trent Valley Way for much of its length, the route offers open views across the water and the surrounding Meadows area. With only about 10 metres of climbing spread around the loop, it's a straightforward run on smooth ground.
