Event Overview

The Bewl Water Summer event takes place at the Bewl Water Country Park in Lamberhurst, Kent, within 1000 acres of countryside. The races are trail runs on a route that circles the reservoir, which is the largest lake in South East England. The course is a combination of undulating rural wooded trail and quiet country lanes, offering views of the lake.

Four distances are offered:

  • Bewl Water Ultra 50km (31.25 miles)
  • Bewl Water Marathon (26.2 miles)
  • Bewl Water Half Marathon (13.1 miles)
  • Bewl Water 10km (6.25 miles)

All events start and finish beside the Bewl Water Visitor Centre.

Event Details

Each distance has its own course structure, primarily consisting of loops around the reservoir. The event uses professional chip timing, with provisional results uploaded after the race. There are stocked checkpoints, marshals on the route, and professional first aid support.

Participants receive a bespoke race medal. Awards are given to the top three male and female finishers in each distance. A professional photography service is available, with photos priced at £10.00 each. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
