Lundy Island Race

Lundy Island Race

The Lundy Island Race is a trail running event located on a remote island in the Bristol Channel. The course covers a distance of 13.5 miles, visiting all four corners of the island. Participants navigate technical eastern coastal trails, undulating western clifftops, and the central spine of the island. The route consists of tracks and trails maintained by the Landmark Trust.

The event has a strict time limit of 3.75 hours. Runners must be অন্তত 17 years of age to participate. Registration and the race headquarters are located on the village green outside the Marisco Tavern, which serves as both the start and finish line.
