Moors Valley Country Park, nestled in the heart of Dorset's picturesque countryside, invites trail runners to experience its natural beauty on Sunday, May 2nd, 2027. Wild Deer Events returns with three distinct race options: a challenging 5-mile course, an invigorating 10-mile route, and a grueling 15-mile journey that combines both shorter distances. The event promises runners the chance to explore Moors Valley's lush woodlands, tranquil lakeside paths, and winding forest tracks. Each trail offers varied terrain, from runnable stretches through dense woodland to more technical sections along rocky outcrops and steep ascents. The routes are designed to test endurance while showcasing Dorset’s stunning natural scenery. Participants will be greeted by a welcoming atmosphere that encourages camaraderie among runners of all fitness levels. A range of support services is provided on race day, including chip timing for accurate results, feed stations with essential hydration and energy boosts along the way, medical assistance at key points throughout the course, and post-race refreshments. Upon crossing the finish line, every runner will receive a bespoke Wild Deer medal to commemorate their achievement. In addition, participants can look forward to picking up exclusive merchandise such as socks or buffs from the event’s official store. The day is rounded off with snacks and drinks for all competitors. On-site parking is available at normal park rates; however, car sharing is encouraged to reduce environmental impact and ease congestion around the venue. Join Wild Deer Events in Moors Valley Country Park this spring for an unforgettable trail running experience that combines natural beauty, challenging terrain, and a supportive community.
