Hadleigh Farm

The Hadleigh Farm is a venue for the Olympic Games in 2012 and is located in Hadleigh in Essex, about 50 km northeast of London. It is located within the approximately 220 -acre Hadleigh Country Park, a recreational area and nature reserve.

At the Olympic Games here the competitions are held in the mountain bike. It will build temporary bleachers for 3,000 spectators. Around the track to the spectator competitions also can track without buying a ticket. The course was built in July 2010 and completed in March 2011. Whether he remains after the competitions, is not yet finally decided. The course runs around the ruins of Hadleigh Castle.

The originally planned as a venue for mountain bike Weald Country Park was replaced at the insistence of the International Cycling Union UCI by the Hadleigh Farm, because the terrain is technically more demanding and selective here.
