Box Hill Vertical KM

Dorking, United Kingdom • 29 Nov 2025

Box Hill Vertical KM is a guided trail run held around Box Hill near Dorking, Surrey. The course covers about 12.5 miles with around 1000m of elevation, designed to rack up significant height in a compact distance. It traverses woodland, heathland and open fields, with hills that are technical enough to require hands-on scrambling.

The run is group-paced, not a race, with pauses atop climbs as needed, making it ideal for building hill strength or training for mountain-style races. Cost is £19 per person. Meet at Stepping Stones Car Park; parking available.

End-of-run reward includes a beer from Athletic Brewing Company. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
