The Maverick Adidas Terrex X Series North Downs 2024
Saturday 18 May 2024 | Cranleigh Showground
Join us for a trail running journey through Surrey with our four amazing routes. You'll explore ancient forests and rolling fields. Feel the calm of the forest around you as you run on crunchy leaves and listen to the sounds of wildlife.
Enjoy the thrill of running on single-track trails that wind their way through Winterfold and Hurtwood Forest. Take a break to admire gorgeous views of the classic British countryside from Pitch Hill. For those who love a challenge, take on our longer routes that pass through Leith Hill and Ranmore Common, and join the famous North Downs Way.
Our trails offer an exhilarating blend of spectacular views and punchy hills. Experience a journey like no other, where scenic splendour meets challenging adventure.
