Gateshead Trail 10K

Swalwell, United Kingdom • 22 Aug 2026

The Gateshead Trail 10k is a scenic, traffic-free 10-kilometre trail race in Swalwell, Gateshead, weaving through the Derwent Walk Country Park. The fast course features wide paths, only a few inclines, and a double-loop at the top, keeping runners close together and boosting PB potential. The event centers on a lively Start/Finish Village with food stalls, music, and a friendly, supportive atmosphere, and it typically attracts a sell-out field of around 2,000 runners. Perks include a designer medal that doubles as a bottle opener, free on-site parking, a goody bag, and access to race photos via Facebook.
