Maverick Run Project Group Run - Chilterns
Sunday 20 March 2022 | Wendover Train Station
Nestled in the heart of England, this route through the Chilterns delivers on all levels. You'll find yourself winding through ancient woodlands, steeped in history, with your efforts being rewarded by incredible views over the surrounding Chiltern Hills AONB. You'll be running on various famous routes such as the Icknield Way which is one of the oldest roads in Britain, consisting of Prehistoric pathways that date back to before Roman times. There’s also an awesome section along the Grand Union Canal which weaves its way back into Wendover before you make the climb up Pulpit Hill and White Leaf Cross.
With trains frequently leaving London and arriving into Wendover in less than 1 hour, the MRP Chilterns event is certainly worthy of a weekend morning adventure.
