Open to Offas

Cilcain, United Kingdom • 9 Aug 2025

Open to Offas is a well-established walking and running challenge held in northeast Wales, starting from Cilcain Village Hall. Participants can choose from three distances: 32 miles, 24 miles, or 15.5 miles. The scenic routes ascend the Clwydian Hills and follow the Offa's Dyke Path along the ridge, including a climb over Moel Famau and, for longer routes, Moel Fenlli towards Llanarmon-yn-Ial.

The return journey passes through wooded countryside and Loggerheads Country Park. The terrain is excellent, offering outstanding views. Both walkers and runners are welcome, with refreshments provided at checkpoints and the finish.

Dogs on leads are allowed, and under-18s must be accompanied by an adult. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
