Endurancelife | North Cornwall

The North Cornwall trail event is based in Polzeath and begins on the village's golden beach. Routes run north east along miles of unspoilt coastline, passing the Pentire Peninsula, fishing villages and valleys before returning to Polzeath. The courses include significant elevation gain and are described as severe terrain.

Surfaces include trail, sand, rock and grass. The event offers electronic timing with split results, a fully marked course, finishers medals, on-site amenities and an afterparty. Event parking may incur charges. Participants are asked to complete an online check-in about two weeks before the event and to watch a mandatory event safety video.

This event is part of the Endurancelife 2026-27 trail running season. Runners who complete any distance at this event are awarded points based on performance and are listed on the Season Leaderboard.
