Dartmoor Winter Traverse

The Dartmoor Winter Traverse is a challenging, fully supported running and walking event held on Dartmoor, UK, typically in February. Participants can choose between a 50 km ultra-distance from the southern to northern moorlands or a shorter 30 km route from Princetown to Meldon. The course traverses remote, wild moorland areas including Red Lake, the sources of the Erme and Plym rivers, Roos Tor, Tavy Cleave, and Chat Tor, featuring rugged terrain and limited daylight.

Navigation is unmarked, requiring maps or GPS, with qualified guides and first aid support available. The event emphasizes personal pacing over racing and offers coach transport to the start. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
