Starting and finishing in the seaside town of Eastbourne, runners will begin over Beachy Head and the famous Seven Sisters before continuing on along some of the best trail running the U.K has to offer. The views are spectacular, and the course is a combination of grass trails, farm tracks and woodland paths. There is just under 8000 ft of elevation to navigate, but the route is generally very runnable and best described as rolling hills with some longer, steeper climbs also.
Beautiful but challenging!
