Malvern Hills 18 miler
A guided trail run across the Malvern Hills and surrounding trails, meeting at North Quarry Car Park in Great Malvern, Worcestershire. The route covers 18 miles and follows the Malvern ridge, visiting multiple summits and ridge sections.
The course includes over 1300 m (4400 ft) of cumulative ascent. The run is conducted as a social group rather than a race; participants should be comfortable sustaining around 10 min/mile (6:15 min/km) on trails for prolonged periods. Steeper climbs may be walked and groups will regroup regularly.
After running from north to south along the ridge, the route returns via lesser known trails on hillsides and in woodland to provide different views of the area. A full kit list and further event information will be provided to participants before the run.
Logistics notes: the meeting point is at North Quarry Car Park, Great Malvern. Car parking is available and the location is a short run or taxi ride from the nearest train station. The participation fee is £39 per person. An alcohol free beer may be available at the end of the run subject to availability. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
