The Route

We'll cover approximately 10 miles on a mix of trails and pathways around the Wye Downs. Expect rolling hills, beautiful views, and some muddy sections - its all part of the fun!

It's a single looped route taking us up onto the Wye Downs via Devil's Kneading Trough, before passing the unmissable Wye Crown and taking in free flowing trails. It will also take in large sections of the Winter Wanderlust course, making this the perfect opportunity for runners to recce the course in advance of race day.

The route will not be marked, so it is essential runners download the GPX route to their watch or phone using the route links below. We will have guide groups, but it is each runners responsibility to know the route and navigate accordingly.

There is a car park at the village hall, however as we are not hiring the venue, we would not encourage parking here.
