High Lodge 16k Guided Trail Run - October
This guided trail run covers 16k on the woodland trails at High Lodge in Thetford Forest, Brandon, Suffolk. The session includes guided navigation of the trails and short talks that share facts about the local forest and practical tips on trail running. Runs are led at a conversational pace and participants are placed in groups with runners of similar ability.
The terrain is mostly hard-packed and generally flat with a couple of small hills where leaders will offer hill-running advice. Trail shoes are recommended but road shoes are acceptable if they are all a participant has. Attendees are advised to bring at least 500 ml of water and any snacks they expect to need.
The event allows around 2.5 hours for completion, though the exact duration depends on group ability. There is parking available at High Lodge and attendees will be charged £3 for parking. The listed entry fee for the event is £17.50. The run is organised by ESCAPE trails and includes an optional cool down and stretching after the guided section.
