What you’re in for
An autumn trail race in the Hurtwood, the pine forest on the Greensand Ridge between Guildford and Dorking. The route climbs the gentler north side and drops down the steep southern escarpments, using sunken sandy lanes, rocky gullies, old smugglers' paths and streams. Expect plenty of mud and some hard climbs; trail shoes are essential. Both distances start together from Houndhouse Road with free parking next to the start. Water stations at 5, 13.5 and 18.5km on the 21km, and at 5 and 10km on the 15km. Watch for road crossings, a short stretch of lane, mountain bikers and horses. Numbers and chips are collected on the day.
