Immerse yourself in the serene beauty of Derbyshire with the Tissington Trail Half Marathon and 10K, taking place on both Saturday, January 23rd and Sunday, January 24th. This beloved race is renowned for its picturesque setting along a former railway line that now serves as an idyllic traffic-free trail between Ashbourne and Buxton.
The route offers runners the chance to soak in breathtaking views of the rolling Derbyshire Dales while navigating gentle uphill stretches on one end, followed by slight downhill sections returning home. This unique terrain not only provides a challenging yet manageable course but also ensures that participants are rewarded with an exhilarating finish line experience.

The race's friendly atmosphere adds to its appeal, making it a favorite among local communities.
Participants will receive a bespoke medal upon completion and can enjoy complimentary photographs capturing their journey along this historic trail. Leading runners also have the opportunity to earn coveted trophies and prizes, enhancing the competitive spirit of the event.
