Winter Bumble Bimble 5 Mile
Bournheath, United Kingdom • 30 Nov 2025
Event overview
The Winter Bumble Bimble Trail Run takes place on Sunday 30 November 2025 in the Bromsgrove countryside. The winter event offers a single distance of 5 miles (approx 8 km). The route starts and finishes at the Park Gate Inn, 178 Kidderminster Road, Bromsgrove B61 9AJ, and is waymarked with arrows and supported by volunteer marshals.
The course passes across Dodford countryside into a woodland valley and through Nutnells Wood, uses quiet lanes and fields, crosses Fockbury Road and returns to the pub. The surface is mostly trails with stiles, kissing gates, mud, long grass and woodland; it is very undulating with steep sections and requires roughly an extra 20% effort/time compared with road running.
