Devils Punchbowl 10km

Hindhead, United Kingdom • 1 Jul 2026

Event overview

This is a guided trail run around the Devil's Punchbowl in Hindhead, Surrey. The route covers 10 km on trails that include several hills and a natural amphitheatre landscape. The event is run as a group rather than a race. Participants should be able to sustain an average pace of about 10 minutes per mile (6 minutes per km) for prolonged periods on trail surfaces. The run includes a pause at a high point to take in the views. Sessions take place as sunset runs in the lighter, warmer months and as night runs in the darker, colder months; night runs use headtorches and are run in a group environment.

Logistics and kit

Meeting location is the Devil's Punchbowl car park in Hindhead, Surrey. Parking is available. Entry cost is £16 per person. A full kit list is provided to participants before the run. The organiser supplies Silva headtorches for trial and offers Salomon trail shoes to test. Alcohol-free beer from a partner brand may be available at the end of the run, subject to availability. Detailed pre-run information and instructions are sent to participants a few days beforehand. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
