You may catch glimpses of charming wildlife, including deer and various bird species, adding to the natural beauty.

Open fields dotted with wildflowers stretch out beside you, providing stunning views of the surrounding countryside. The historic Stansted House itself, with its striking architecture, serves as a beautiful backdrop, enriching the experience with a touch of history.

Upon crossing the finish line, you'll feel a surge of accomplishment. Every hiker is awarded a high-quality metal medal, a symbol of your hard work and dedication. You'll also receive a well-deserved finisher's gift, along with a refreshing drink to quench your thirst after your hike.
