Derby Derwent Trail Run
The Derby Derwent Trail Run is an off road event held within Elvaston Castle Country Park in Derbyshire. The course runs through woodland trails, open parkland and riverside paths, with extended sections alongside the River Derwent and views of Victorian gardens and historic architecture.
Participants can choose from multiple distances:
- 10.4 km
- 14.5 km
- 21.1 km (Half Marathon)
The terrain is predominantly trail and grass with some firm footpaths. The longer route includes elevation gain up to 106 m. The route is fully signed using pink arrows and tape, and marshals are positioned on course. The event provides chip timing, water stations, first aid cover and an event photographer. All finishers receive a medal and a certificate.
On the day, runners collect their race bib at registration and are asked to bring a reusable cup or bottle, as the event operates plastic free. Hazards and road junctions are marked with caution signs. Spectators are welcome in the parkland and the event centre operates until the published closing time.
