Exmoor National Park is one of England’s best kept secrets, and this stage takes place in the lesser known western area of the National Park where a trail runner’s mecca lies. The Exmoor courses encompass stiff climbs and long descents, open moorland, thickly wooded combes (valleys), historical ruins, dizzying cliffs, exquisitely beautiful rivers and a stretch of coastline that is unsurpassed. We are confident that there is no course in Britain that offers such a variety of terrain within such a compact area. This truly is trail running territory at its best. The Exmoor course is widely regarded as the toughest course in the Series and is definitely a gruelling test of endurance for even the very hardiest trail and fell runners.

The Exmoor event is also an early summer celebration of trail running with camping, music, catering and drinks on offer in one of England’s most stunning settings. It is a fitting conclusion to the annual Coastal Trail Series and it is here where the overall Series winners will be crowned.

This event is part of the Endurancelife 22/23 trail running season and is number 12/12 in the series.
