Event Type

The Box Hill Vertical KM is a guided trail run focused on hill climbing. It is not a race but a group activity.

Route and Terrain

The route is designed to accumulate over 1000 meters of elevation gain in as short a distance as possible, without hill repetitions. Participants traverse woodland, heathland, and open fields, with some technical sections that may require scrambling.

Group and Pace

This is a group run conducted at a steady pace. Runners should be capable of maintaining an average pace of 10 minutes per mile or 6 minutes per kilometer on trails for extended periods.

Kit and Logistics

A full kit list is provided. Trail shoes are available for testing upon request during registration. The event takes place at the National Trust Box Hill Stepping Stones in Dorking, UK.

Additional Information

At the end of the run, participants receive a free alcohol-free beer from Days Brewing Company, subject to availability. If cancelled due to COVID-19, options for a refund or transfer to a later event are offered. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
