Moors Valley Wildwood Trail Series 2025

Sunday 26 January 2025 | Moors Valley Country Park & Forest

Kickstart your 2025 trail running season with an unforgettable experience at the Moors Valley Wildwood Trail Series! Set within the picturesque Moors Valley Country Park, this event promises breathtaking natural beauty and an exhilarating challenge for runners of all levels.

Choose between our stunning half marathon and 10K routes that will take you deep into the heart of Moors Valley’s rich woodland. As you wind your way through towering trees and diverse forest habitats, keep an eye out for the local wildlife—deer, birds of prey, and perhaps even a few shy woodland creatures hiding amongst the trees. The park’s gravel paths offer a solid footing, but be prepared for some wet, muddy patches and a few sneaky, steep inclines to test your legs!

The trail is designed to accommodate runners of all abilities, with two route options available. 

No matter which distance you choose, this event is sure to challenge and reward you with stunning views and an invigorating atmosphere. Join us on Sunday 26 January 2025, for a magical morning of trail running in the crisp winter air—where the crunch of frosted leaves underfoot will mark the start of an exciting new year of adventures.
