About

Join Sussex Trail Runners for an epic 13-mile (21 km) trail run through the stunning South Downs! We’ll meet at The Oval, Peacehaven (Telscombe Road entrance) before setting off on a scenic route packed with rolling hills, rugged trails, and breathtaking views. With a total elevation gain of 1,320 feet (402 meters), this route offers the perfect mix of challenging climbs, fast descents, and flowing ridgeline trails. The run takes us through the Castle Hill National Nature Reserve, a haven for chalk grassland wildlife, before heading towards Standean Bottom, where you’ll be rewarded with sweeping panoramic views of the Downs. Expect mud, hills, and some exhilarating trail running! This is a fantastic opportunity to explore some of Sussex’s best trails while running alongside a friendly group of fellow enthusiasts. All paces welcome—come for the adventure, stay for the views! This event is not a race, but rather a fun adventure that will allow you to meet like-minded people and discover new routes.
