Eight trig points sit on a beautifully varied trail loop in East Devon. For our 2025 event, we have 3 options:

3 Trigs Half Marathon (21km)*
6 Trigs Marathon (42km)*
8 Trigs Ultramarathon (53km)*
*All distances are approximate and assume that you have taken the shortest line


All trig points can be found without the need for complicated navigation techniques. However, a basic understanding of navigation will be required as this isn’t way marked. Finding the shortest/quickest line is all part of the fun!
The 3 trigs half marathon route avoids the biggest hills and stays on the western side of the Otter Valley. The 6 trigs marathon crosses onto the eastern side of the Otter Valley and adds a couple of bigger hills. The 8 trigs ultra crosses the Sid Valley to find the extra 2 trigs before returning along the South West Coast Path.
