Starting at Queen Elizabeth Country Park, which is a large country park situated on the South Downs, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and is conveniently located on the A3 south of Petersfield, Hampshire.
This amazing trail run has it all, spectacular tree lined trails, magnificent views and sturdy trails which are a pleasure to run on. The route starts and finishes in QECP exploring its hard packed off-road trail network.
Head out of the park where you'll enjoy running through the ancient woodland at ‘Head Down’ before reaching the iconic South Downs Way. From here both routes loop back to the park via the famous local trail called the ‘Milky Way’.
Back in the Park all 3 routes combine together to explore ‘War Down’ which boasts weatherproof, tree lined gravel tracks. You will get a real sense of being at one with Nature and allowing your mind to wonder whilst your legs clock up the kilometers.
What better place to experience trail running than with a course that allows you to experience multiple terrains and overloads your senses with such a variety of incredible views.
Regardless of experience or ability, we actively encourage new runners to our events and have 3 route lengths to choose from.
At the finish line you will receive a well-deserved high-quality metal medal, finisher’s gift and refreshing drink!

St Rocco’s Hospice provides specialist care and support across Warrington, helping those who are coping with a life-limiting illness and their loved ones. It costs around £5.2 million each year to run the hospice – which means we need to raise £15,000 each and every day just to keep running. We are proud to be a Hospice without Walls offering care both in the Hospice building with our 10 bed in patient unit and Vitality Centre and out in the community with our Hospice at home service. In the Vitality Centre patients can receive physiotherapy and complementary therapy like reiki. We also have a family support team that are dedicated to helping those touched by terminal illness. All of these services focus on enabling people to live life to the full and are provided free to patients and their families, but we can only do this because of the generosity of the local community. We focus on the positives. Supporting patients physically, psychologically and emotionally to enable them to carry on living the lives they want to live for as long as possible. We aim to help them improve the quality of life for them and for their loved ones.
