The Duergar Nightcrawler

Face the legends of Northumberland's dark fells on a truly atmospheric night run. The Duergar Night Trail Run returns on Saturday, 7 February 2026 at 6:00 PM, challenging runners with an 11-mile loop that ascends the rugged Simonside Crags above Rothbury. This unique event transforms the myth-laden landscape into a thrilling winter adventure, where headlamps cut through the darkness on rocky trails and ancient paths. With mandatory kit ensuring safety, a festive finish-line mulled wine, and a non-competitive yet timed format, it masterfully blends a serious trail test with a deeply communal, almost storybook atmosphere. Experience the raw beauty and eerie silence of the Coquet Valley by night in a run that feels more like a pilgrimage into folklore than a simple race. Secure your spot for an unforgettable nocturnal journey where every shadow could hide a duergar.
