Trail & Fell Running Courses Overview

The health benefits of running are well known. If you would rather run through the woods, smell the flowers and listen to the birds than dodge traffic and inhale fumes you will understand the growing popularity of trail and fell running. If you would like to learn some more about the skills to tackle trails or fells safely by day or night then you have found the right place.

If the standard courses don’t fit what you have in mind, just contact the office and we will help you make a plan. We offer a range of Challenge runs (or walks) and are more than happy to guide you around these.

We use the commonly accepted distinction that trail running is on paths and tracks and fell running can go off path. There is some overlap in the technical running skills, but it’s a big difference between the two in navigation and general planning and safety. After all whilst it’s great fun fell running you do get into danger quicker!

We can be hired to privately instruct these courses at a specific location or on a specific date to suit your requirements. Private guiding in summer is from £250 per day.  Simply contact the office to enquire.
