Winchester Trail Run (Hampshire)
The Winchester Trail Run is an off-road event held near Winchester in the Hampshire countryside, centred on routes around Farley Mount. Over 1,000 participants took part in the event last year. The course follows tracks, bridleways and footpaths and is described as rolling rather than heavily hilly. The Half Marathon route includes a short climb to Farley Mount and both routes feature tree-lined sections and open vistas over the surrounding countryside.
The event is based at Sparsholt College, which provides plentiful hard-standing parking for participants. Two route lengths are available:
- 21.4k Half Marathon
- 12.1k Medium route
Race services include chip timing, course signing, on-course water stations and first aid cover. Finishers receive a high-quality medal, a cool drink, a finisher goodie and a personalised certificate. Marshals are positioned around the course and the route is fully signed with coloured arrows and tape. Event-day provisions also list an event photographer and on-course refreshments. The organisers request reusable cups or bottles at water stations to support a plastic free approach. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
