Chichester Harbour Trail Run
The Chichester Harbour Trail Run follows coastal and inland trails around the Chidham Peninsula in Chichester Harbour, a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The course passes harbour-side paths and quiet trails with long-reaching views across the water.
Runners encounter panoramas towards Bosham Hoe, Itchenor, East Head and the South Downs. At low tide the route includes a short stretch across the foreshore that is only accessible when the tide is out.
The route is relatively flat for a trail event and is scheduled as an early-season running challenge. Two distances are offered for participants:
- 21.3k Half Marathon, approximately 65 m elevation gain
- 16.1k Medium route, approximately 50 m elevation gain
Event services and on-course provision include chip timing, on-course refreshments and water stations, course marshals, first aid cover, a fully signed route, and an event photographer. Finishers receive a metal medal, a refreshing drink, finisher's goodies and a personalised certificate. Spectators are welcome and the course is marked with pink arrows and tape; hazards and road junctions are signed with caution notices. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
