About this event
Set in the heart of Shropshire, the Mortimer Forest Trail Race offers runners a taste of one of England's most atmospheric woodland settings. The forest's mix of technical single track and flowing trails winds through dense pine and broadleaf woodland, with glimpses of the wider Marches landscape. The longer 10-mile route challenges intermediate runners with sustained climbs and technical descents, while the 4-mile option provides a perfect introduction to forest trail running. December timing means crisp conditions and potentially muddy, character-building terrain. The race attracts a friendly local crowd, and the forest's rich history adds an extra layer of intrigue to the running experience.
