Forest of Dean Ultra Marathon

Put your navigation skills to the test on this 55 km route, taking in the highlights of the Forest of Dean.

The route is varied, with technical single track to wide open stretches by the River Wye. You'll dive into the deep dark depths of the forest, explore ridges with open views, and trek across glorious fields and far reaching countryside. There’s stunning views across dense woodlands with rolling natural beauty that stretch out to the Brecon Beacons and beyond.

It’s one amazing and exciting journey!
