This guided run follows sections of the North Downs Way starting and finishing in Guildford, exploring some of the most well known trail running terrain in the Surrey Hills. The route passes through St Martha’s Hill, Newlands Corner, Ranmore Common and Box Hill, linking a mix of woodland paths, chalk ridgelines and open countryside.
The course is run as a social group effort rather than a race, with an experienced guide setting a steady pace and providing support throughout. Terrain is varied with steady climbs and rolling trails, offering a sustained endurance effort rather than technical running.
Designed as a full day trail experience, it focuses on covering distance in a structured but relaxed format while showcasing one of southern England’s most iconic long distance footpaths.
