A five-star Morris Leisure caravan park nestled in the Welsh national park of Snowdonia is to play host to a one-mile children’s fun run this weekend.
The former Caravan Club affiliated site, Riverside Touring Park, has agreed to support the popular Betws y Coed half marathon by helping organise the fun run that will coincide with the main event.
Around 400 competitors are expected to take part in the 13-mile race, and the children’s race has been put together for young people who can’t compete in the longer version.
It will begin at 12.15pm on Sunday April 1st at the entrance to the Riverside Touring Park, taking a route through the caravan site and the golf course next door.
Managing director of Morris Leisure, Edward Goddards, said the company was delighted to support the Betws y Coed half marathon because of the people it would bring to the village.
“Thousands of people come to stay at Riverside because it’s a five star park close to the village and within half an hour of most attractions in Snowdonia,” he said.
“When we are busy, so too are the other businesses in Betws y Coed and surrounding towns and villages.”
