It's the challenge. It's the mud. It's the trail. It's the Eridge Park 10 Trail Challenge and it's back for your racing pleasure in 2024.

Event Overview:
After being sadly absent from our racing calendars in 2023, this corker of a race returns in 2024 to bring us trail delights and glory. Dubbed the "favourite of off-road" races, this route is renowned for its captivating views, steep narrow climbs and copious quantities of mud.

Your entry will include a high quality cotton t-shirt (sizing options available on booking) and a pint and cake on the finish line!
This race is approved by the Trail Running Association and run under UKA Regulations, Permit number: 6667.

Course Details:
The route is traffic-free and gives the unique opportunity to run through the estate, which is mostly private.  The course is marshalled by our dedicated club members and friends who will guide you through the course and cheer you on. The route will be marked with red hazard tape in the trees, yellow flags and blue arrows on the ground.  Four drinks stations with Jelly Babies (of the officially approved Haribo variety) and retirement points will be provided. It is important not to stray from the marked route and to treat livestock, crops and machinery with respect; leave no litter; cause no fire; or make any unnecessary noise.  Enjoy the privilege of using the park, its life and work.
