Route Description

The Jones o Gymru Anglesey 10K starts and finishes at the Anglesey Showground, a wide open setting with a spectacular panorama of Eryri (Snowdonia) rising across the Menai Strait. With the Carneddau and Glyderau peaks forming a dramatic skyline, runners set off with one of the most inspiring start-line views in Wales.

From the Showground, the route heads west on the A5, allowing runners to settle into their rhythm on a wide, fully closed road, before turning north, onto a quiet country lane, leading runners through some of the island’s most traditional agricultural landscapes. These peaceful roads, edged with hedgerows and historic field boundaries, highlight the deep rural character that defines the heart of Anglesey.

Reaching the tiny hamlet of Tynlon, and joining the half marathon route, open countryside soon gives runners superb long-range views of Eryri. The mountain skyline makes for stunning views from this part of the course, creating an inspiring backdrop as you move through gently undulating terrain. The mountain views framed between fields, farmsteads, and the quiet, timeless lanes of central Anglesey. This section captures the island at its most authentic and scenic.

The course then arcs south toward Llyn Cefni. As runners approach the reservoir, the setting becomes wide and atmospheric, with beautiful water views and distant mountain silhouettes.

With the final kilometres approaching, the road gently rises and falls as runners make their way back toward the Anglesey Showground. Eryri comes back into view as the finish line draws near, creating a spectacular closing scene for your final push. Supporters, music, and the lively race-village atmosphere welcome runners home.

This entirely closed-road 10K is a celebration of historic rural Anglesey, far-reaching mountain vistas, and the quiet beauty of the island’s countryside. From the first steps to the final sprint, it’s a route that feels both scenic and deeply rooted in place; a true Anglesey experience.
