Recommended Metro station: Haymarket (1km) or Jesmond (1.1 km)
Elevation: Mostly Flat

Around the Town Moor in central Newcastle, this is one of the biggest in terms of attendance - The course is the flattest of the 6, and while a couple of pinch points at gates can cause congestion. It's probably the fastest.
From Haymarket Metro
Turn right as you come through the station turnstiles to double-back past the escalators and head out towards the church and Civic Centre, cross over to the left-hand side just before the Hancock museum and turn left to head up Claremont road through the University. Just after the roundabout, head right into the park, follow the path under the Central Motorway, and then head left just after the top of the bank and through the gates.
From Jesmond Metro
