The Forest Flyer is a nearly 5-mile running event held at Haldon Forest Park near Exeter. The course features forest tracks, paths, and fire roads, offering a scenic and varied trail running experience. Open to participants aged 18 and over, the race provides water at two stops and the finish line, encouraging runners to bring their own cups as it is a cupless event.
