The Jurassic Express Trail Run begins on the beautiful Swanage seafront and takes you on an unforgettable journey through some of the South Coast's most iconic scenery. This spectacular coastal trail run includes 3 route distances. Pick from 21k (Half Marathon), 16.5k or 10.5k. The course is perfect for runners seeking stunning views, varied terrain, and a truly unique race day experience.
From the very first stretch, you'll enjoy breathtaking coastal panoramas as the route guides you past highlights such as Old Harry Rocks, Studland, and the majestic Corfe Castle. The trails are made up of firm chalk paths and sandy tracks, offering smooth, enjoyable running whether you're chasing a time or simply looking to immerse yourself in the beauty of the Jurassic Coast.
Your adventure doesn't end at the finish line. After crossing the finish beneath the historic ruins of Corfe Castle, you'll board a private vintage train for a memorable journey back to Swanage. Sit back, relax, and take in the nostalgic charm of the Swanage historic railway, the perfect way to reflect on a trail run you'll remember for years.
