Way of the Dead (a Dartmoor Traverse East to West)

Devon, United Kingdom • 29 Mar 2025

The Way of the Dead is a challenging 50k trail running event traversing Dartmoor from east to west, set to take place on March 29, 2025. Participants can choose to run solo or in pairs, with live GPS tracking provided for safety. The course features three checkpoints that double as feed stations, and bags will be transported to the finish line in Tavistock. While the ascent is relatively minimal at 1389 meters, the second half of the route requires navigational skills due to its unsigned nature. A shorter 14-mile option is also available for those preferring a less demanding challenge. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
