Bewl Water Autumn : overview
Bewl Water Autumn is a bi-annual race series organised by Hermes Running near the Bewl Water Visitor Centre, Lamberhurst, Kent. Courses follow a route around the reservoir on a mix of undulating rural wooded trail and some quiet country lanes, with lake views for much of the route. Runners World rated this course as one of the top 10 marathons in the U.K.
