Sidmouth Four Trigs
Sidmouth Four Trigs is a low key off road running event covering approximately 27 km (about 17 miles) with 3999 ft of elevation. The course requires visiting four trig points around Sidmouth and includes a few additional check points.
Runners must visit the four trigs in order: Weston Cliff, Buckton Hill, Beacon Hill and High Peak. Participants may choose their own route between those points, but excessive use of roads is strongly discouraged. The route forms a loop and finishes at the same location as the start.
Registration and race number pickup take place at the Watersports Hub, Sidmouth EX10 8BG. The Watersports Hub provides toilet, shower facilities and refreshments. The event has an entry fee of £22.50 and is restricted to participants aged 18 or older. Dogs are not permitted.
Marshals will be positioned on the course near the Donkey Sanctuary, Sidbury, White Cross and Four Elms. All finishers receive a locally made Welsh slate coaster. All profits from the race are donated to Cardiac Risk in the Young (CRY), which works on awareness, screening and research to help prevent young sudden cardiac deaths and on supporting affected families.
The event is part of a wider series for the Jurassic Triple Challenge where completing three specified races in 2027 earns a commemorative set of coasters. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
