Winter Downs 100
About this event
The Winter Downs 100 takes experienced ultra runners on a serious 155-kilometre journey through the South Downs in December, when the chalk hills reveal their most austere character. Based from Amberley, this expert-level challenge covers 2,674 metres of elevation across terrain that can be genuinely tough in winter — muddy bridleways, exposed ridgelines, and technical descents where navigation skills matter in the short daylight hours. The route showcases the raw beauty of southern England's rolling downland when most visitors have retreated indoors, demanding mental fortitude alongside physical preparation from those ready for a proper winter test on these iconic trails.
