A Guided Run: From Bovey to the Moor and Back

Bovey Tracey, United Kingdom • 19 Apr 2026

A guided run from Bovey Tracey to Lustleigh and back

This guided run takes place on 19 April 2026 and follows the eastern edge of the moor from Bovey Tracey to Lustleigh and back. The outward route uses good paths and country lanes via Shaptor Down, Gladstone Rock and Trenchford Reservoir, returning along the Dartmoor Way to Bovey Tracey.

The route covers about 10.5 miles with roughly 2000 ft of climb. The run stays on paths and lanes with no open moorland, giving a gentle countryside feel rather than exposed moor running.

Participants are asked to wear trail shoes and carry a waterproof, snacks and water, as weather can change. There is a car park with toilets at the start; parking is charged. The organiser is unable to offer lifts from Tavistock on this occasion.

Total places are 25 and the event status is open. The listed entry price until 18 April 2026 is £5.00; a service fee of 4% (minimum 50p) applies per sign-up. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
