Discover the thrill of trail running at the Wendover Woods Half Marathon, 10K & 5K, a scenic woodland challenge set in the heart of the Chiltern Hills in Buckinghamshire. Organised by Nice Work, this popular event offers a choice of distances for runners of varying abilities, from experienced trail enthusiasts seeking a demanding challenge to newcomers looking to explore the great outdoors.

The routes wind through the beautiful surroundings of Wendover Woods, following a mixture of forest tracks, woodland paths and trails beneath towering trees. With a hilly profile, significant climbs and rewarding downhill stretches, runners can expect a challenging course that tests both strength and stamina. The half marathon follows a two-lap route, while the 10K covers a single lap, with uneven surfaces, exposed roots and potentially muddy sections adding to the adventure.

With its peaceful woodland scenery, friendly atmosphere and enthusiastic marshals, the Wendover Woods event offers a rewarding alternative to traditional road racing. A dedicated junior run gives younger participants the opportunity to join the action, while the on-site café, adventure playground and forest walks provide plenty to keep supporters entertained. Whether tackling a longer-distance challenge or enjoying a shorter forest run, participants can look forward to a memorable day on the trails.
