Chatelherault Country Park Trail Races are organised by Up and Running Events, with four distances exploring the spectacular woodland and trails of the country park.
At the heart of the event is a 10K trail loop, with the 6K, 10K, 16K and 20K races using different sections and combinations of the course. Runners can expect a varied route through dense woodland, featuring flowing forest paths, rolling climbs, bridge crossings, stair descents and plenty of twists and turns.
The naturally challenging terrain makes this an event focused more on the trail running experience than chasing a road race personal best. Courses are fully marked with directional arrows and marshals positioned around the route.
All distances are chip timed, with on course hydration, medical support and free race photography provided. Finishers receive an exclusive medal and post race goodies.
