The turtle has been replaced.

Haystack Moutain in Norfolk.

Once upon a time there was a hare who, boasting how he could run faster than anyone else, was forever teasing tortoise for its slowness. Then one day, the irate tortoise answered back: "Who do you think you are? There's no denying you're swift, but even you can be beaten!" The hare squealed with laughter.
"Beaten in a race? By whom? Not you, surely! I bet there's nobody in the world that can win against me, I'm so speedy. Now, why don't you try?"
Annoyed by such bragging, the tortoise accepted the challenge. A course was planned, and the next day at dawn they stood at the starting "GATE".

At the starting "GATE" look for a tree with a yellow blaze on it and a sign that reads "Haystack Loop trial". Standing at that tree look to your right to the biggest tree growing out of the stone wall . Between this tree and the wall is where the race begins.

Get back in your car and drive to the top and park. To get to the finish Line you must walk up the trail But first stopping by along the way to have a cup of tea with Gram Ma Bunny. When you get to the top before heading to the tower there will be a stone wall on your right facing the tower walk approx 13 steps along the wall. Behind 1 small rocks. There in the wall you'll find the winner of the race.
