Over The Hills Multi Terrain 12K

View all races for Nov 2026

Over the Hills is a 12K mixed terrain race through the scenic Avon Valley countryside, starting from Barton Farm Country Park in Bradford on Avon. The predominantly off road route combines canal towpaths, river meadows and woodland trails, with a crossing of the River Frome adding a distinctive feature to the course.

Runners face a hilly and varied route with climbs through woodland and a mixture of off road surfaces across the Avon Valley. The combination of canal towpaths, open meadows, woodland trails and the river crossing creates a varied 12K challenge and an accessible introduction to off road racing.

Organised by Avon Valley Runners, Over the Hills combines countryside running with a friendly local race atmosphere. The event also supports Alzheimer's Support and Trowbridge Lions, bringing runners together for an established autumn fixture in the Wiltshire running calendar.
