Dukeries 30 and 40

The event offers two loop distances that run largely through Sherwood Forest and surrounding country in Nottinghamshire. The routes use forest trails and footpaths and pass sandstone villages and historical sites including Thoresby Estate, Creswell Crags and the Welbeck Estate. The longer option passes The Major Oak.

Distances:

  • 30 miles
  • 40 miles

The course is fully marked with tape and arrows. There are well stocked aid stations along the route and one enforced cutoff at Aid Station 3 on the A614; the total event cutoff is 10.5 hours. Pacers are not allowed. Crews may access the route except at specified banned locations. Drop bags are not available.

All finishers receive a medal. Hot soup, tea and coffee are available at the finish area, with vegan food options and milk for hot drinks. Free parking is provided at the start. Entries close three weeks before the event or when the event is full, and there is no entry on the day. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
