Butcombe Trail Ultra

The Butcombe Trail Ultra is a challenging trail ultramarathon held in the Mendip Hills, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in the UK. It offers two race distances: 50 miles and 50 kilometers, both self-navigation events following a mostly off-road route that showcases stunning countryside and views. The course loops around six pubs and is based on a hiking trail created in 2007.

Organized by volunteers from Bristol's Town & Country Harriers, the event supports the Mendip Hills Fund for local conservation. The race emphasizes safety with tracking devices and serves as a qualifier for the UTMB series. It fosters inclusivity with diverse prize categories.
