Five Rivers Ultra

The Five Rivers Ultra is a scenic ultra-endurance running event held along the wild North Essex and South Suffolk coastline, finishing in Harwich, Suffolk. It offers three distance options: 100 miles, 50 miles, and 50 km, all featuring generous cut-off times. The point-to-point course traverses beautiful Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty, including Dedham Vale and Suffolk Coast & Heaths, with over 85% of the route on grass or dirt trails.

Runners experience flat, fast terrain with estuary views, following well-marked long-distance footpaths. The event includes drop bag support, indoor checkpoints with hot refreshments, GPX route downloads, and finisher mementos, under UK Athletics and Trail Running Association licenses.
