Trails & Tails - Driffield
Trails & Tails is a timed trail event held in the East Yorkshire countryside and based at Field House Coffee Barn. The event offers two marked trail distances:
- 4-mile timed trail
- 8-mile timed trail
Both routes are described as runnable trails with gentle elevation and scenic views. The event is chip timed; all participants receive a medal and there are additional prizes plus special dog awards.
Facilities at the venue include plenty of parking, proper toilets, and food and drink available at the finish provided by the on-site coffee barn. The event schedule aligns with the main Canicross season from September to March/April and follows DogFit guidance on heat risk.
Canicross participation details are specified: runners must use a proper canicross harness and line rather than everyday walking harnesses, and restrictive chest-strap styles such as Julius K9 are not permitted on the start line. Up to two dogs per runner are allowed. The event uses a staggered start with canine entrants leaving first to provide space for all participants.
Event merchandise such as wicking tops is available for purchase for £19 and will be ready to collect at Field House Coffee Barn on event day. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
