Course Information
Each course is designed to best suit the event location.
There are no paint, water or mud obstacles at a Gung-Ho! event, but some mud should be anticipated in bad weather.
We cannot guarantee that every obstacle will appear at every event. The obstacles and their positioning are dependent on the specific venue.
Rest assured we will do our best to set up every route to provide the most Gung-Ho! fun.

If the weather on the day is wet then we recommend bringing a change of clothing and footwear as the ground can get muddy!
