Dartmoor Full Circle 100

Dartmoor Way events : October 2026

OuterEdge Events is staging two trail races around Dartmoor on 2-3 October 2026, based at the Pavilion in the Park, Mill Road, Okehampton, Devon (EX20 1GE). The events follow the waymarked Dartmoor Way walking route and skirt the periphery of the Moor, using tracks, trails, green lanes, riverside paths and quiet country lanes. The races cross areas of open moorland and sections of rocky, tussocky and boggy terrain. Autumn weather can be unpredictable, with cold, rain and possible snow, and both races include night running sections.

• 100 miles (Dartmoor Full Circle 100)
• 51 miles (Dartmoor Granite 50)

Course, support and entry requirements

The 100-mile event includes six indoor, manned checkpoints at village or church halls and lists a total route distance of about 106 miles to the finish in Okehampton with over 4,000 m of ascent. The 51-mile Granite 50 follows the eastern sector from Scoriton to Okehampton, has three checkpoints plus an additional water stop, and over 2,000 m of ascent. Both events provide hot food and drink at checkpoints, GPS tracking of competitors, GPX route files, changing and shower facilities, and on-course medical support.

Both races require compulsory kit including waterproof body cover, headtorch with spare batteries, fluid capacity, emergency food and shelter, and a mobile phone. Entry standards are enforced: the 100-mile race requires a prior 50-mile finish within specified dates, and the 50-mile race requires completion of a recent trail marathon.
