Harold's Henge Half Marathon 2025 - Summer Solstice Guided Trail Run

*tickets on sale soon*

2025 returns with solstice falling on FRIDAY NIGHT!
We're back for another year. Join us for a guided trail run on on the summer solstice. This challenging out and back route starts in Hastings Country Park, tackling trail, road and gravel tracks to the halfway point. There we take a short break to enjoy the sunset (weather permitting!) at 'Harolds Henge', a sculpture on the 1066 pathway. Usually a shot of some home brewed rhubarb vodka is on offer!
This may make 😁 or break 🤢 your return leg in the dark - you won't know unless you try 😉

At the end runners can get a hot drink and home baked treat (VG).

Where and when -

Hastings Country Park Visitor Centre, Lower Coastguard Ln, Fairlight, Hastings TN35 4AD, UK
