Pontesbury Fell Race

About this event

The Pontesbury Fell Race takes runners up into the Shropshire Hills, climbing 354 meters over a compact 6-kilometer route. Starting from the village of Pontesbury, this classic fell race follows the tradition of British hill running — short, sharp, and testing. The course heads straight for the high ground, rewarding the effort with views across the Welsh borders. Though categorized as beginner-level by distance, the ascent demands respect and a decent fitness base. It's the kind of race where local knowledge of the terrain can make all the difference, and where runners finish knowing they've properly earned their post-race tea.
