Chopwell Woods Christmas Trail Races

Website Registration

The Chopwell Woods Christmas Trail Races, held annually at Chopwell Woods near Rowlands Gill on the Gateshead fringe, offer a festive running event set in a scenic 360-hectare mixed woodland. The event features three distances: a 1-mile Santa run for children aged 3-11 (with a free adult companion), a 4-mile run for those over 11, and an 8-mile race for participants over 16. The course is Canicross friendly, allowing one controlled dog per runner.

All finishers receive medals, event merchandise, mince pies, chocolates, and drinks. The event is popular, often selling out, and encourages car sharing due to limited parking. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.

Always double-check with the organizer's website – things can change, and we might have sprinted past a few details!
