Tissington Trail Half Marathon

About this event

The Tissington Trail Half Marathon follows a historic railway line through the Derbyshire Dales, offering a rare point-to-point course with a gentle downhill gradient. Starting at Parsley Hay and finishing in Ashbourne, the traffic-free route runs for 13.1 miles through quintessentially English countryside, with rolling hills and pastoral views stretching across the Peak District. The event runs over two days, giving runners flexibility to choose Saturday or Sunday, or tackle both for a weekend double. Coach transport to the start line adds to the adventure, and the course's favorable profile makes it popular for personal bests. This well-established event has built a strong reputation and tends to sell out months ahead, so early registration is recommended for anyone drawn to this classic Derbyshire trail experience.
