The Woods

Cornwall, United Kingdom • 20 Sep 2025

The Woods is a challenging trail running event held in Tehidy Woods on the North Coast, known for its rich history and natural beauty. Participants choose from four race durations—3, 6, 9, or 12 hours—each covering as many laps as possible of a demanding 4-mile hilly loop marked with Bys Vyken arrows. The event features a unique format where all races start simultaneously, and the field gradually thins as runners drop out over time. Amenities include ample parking, vendor and refreshment stalls, and a supportive atmosphere. The Woods encourages runners to test their endurance amid the woodland's rugged terrain and scenic surroundings. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
