A guided trail run based in the Surrey Hills, starting from Stepping Stones Car Park near Dorking. The route covers around 12.5 miles with approximately 1000 metres of elevation gain, designed to pack in sustained climbing over a relatively short distance.
The course links steep woodland climbs, heathland paths and open hillside, with some technical sections requiring careful footing and occasional scrambling. Rather than repeating a single ascent, the route continuously explores different hills and trails across the area, building a demanding but varied profile.
Led as a group run rather than a race, the emphasis is on effort, coaching and shared experience on challenging terrain. The pace is steady and controlled, with the focus on building strength and confidence on sustained climbs in a real trail environment.
