Set in the beautiful Hampshire countryside just outside Winchester, the route follows stunning tracks, bridleways, and footpaths that surround the famous Farley Mount. This local landmark is the jewel in the crown of this rewarding Half Marathon Trail Run.

The course is rolling rather than hilly, making it a perfect early-season race that will ease you into your new year of running while still delivering a satisfying challenge.
