Car Park I viewing areas

V1 Following a footpath from the car park, you reach a prepared standing area that overlooks a twisty section after the crossing of a narrow bridge.

V2 With easy access from the head of the car park, this will enable viewing of the competitors for at last 500m as they climb towards the quarry through two tight sweeping bends. 

V3 On the edge of a quarry with unsurpassed views as competitors climb in a complete loop around the perimeter road.  The footpath is a steep climb from the car park but assisted on the last 50m by a handrail.
