Shop - New Forest Trail Hike & Walking Challenge, Sat 13th Nov 2027

Experience the beauty of the New Forest National Park with the New Forest Trail Hike, starting near Brockenhurst. Set in a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, this late-season walking and hiking challenge offers a memorable outdoor adventure for participants of all abilities.

The route follows wide, hard-packed gravel paths, winding through stunning forests where you may encounter native New Forest ponies, horses, donkeys, and deer grazing freely along the trails. Recognized as the best National Park in Europe and 10th in the world, the New Forest provides a breathtaking backdrop for an unforgettable walking or hiking experience.

With three distances available 21k (Half Marathon), 17k, or 10k the event welcomes walkers, hikers, and outdoor enthusiasts of all levels. At the finish line, participants are rewarded with a high-quality metal medal, refreshing drink, and a selection of finisher goodies.
