Two Tunnels - June 2027

The Two Tunnels event in Bath centres on two restored railway tunnels that now form a shared use path beneath the city. The Devonshire Tunnel is 408 m long and the Combe Down Tunnel is 1,672 m long. The tunnels were sealed until April 2013 and were reopened after a seven year restoration project by the Two Tunnels Group and Sustrans. Both tunnels are lit and surfaced for running, walking and cycling.

The event offers a range of race distances and formats, from short family races to multi-stage and long-distance events:

  • Ultra marathon and 50km relay
  • Marathon
  • Three different half marathons
  • Two different 10 km races
  • 5 km race
  • 2 km Colourburst
  • 500 m Colourburst

The event start and finish are at Brickfields Park in Twerton, Bath, which includes a children's playground and space for spectating. The organiser is Relish The Great Outdoors. Tickets for this edition are currently sold out. The event contributes £1 per runner to Sustrans, now known as the Walk, Wheel, Cycle Trust, and more than £30,000 has been raised to date.
