Guided Trail Run in High Lodge
The High Lodge Guided Trail Run offers a 16 km route through the woodland trails of Thetford Forest in Suffolk. This event is designed as a guided experience where participants run together in groups based on similar abilities. The focus of the run is on scenery and exploration rather than competition, with all groups maintaining a conversational pace to allow for a relaxed atmosphere.
The course features a variety of terrain including hard-packed tracks and single-track woodland trails. The topography is predominantly flat, though it includes a few small hills. During the run, guides provide information about the local forest environment and offer technical tips for tackling trail-specific terrain and hills.
Available distances:
- 16 km
The event duration is approximately 2.5 hours, though this timeframe is adjusted according to the needs and pace of the participants. Runners are advised to bring at least 500 ml of water and their own snacks. While trail running shoes are recommended for the varied terrain, standard road shoes are also acceptable. On-site parking is available at High Lodge for a fee of £4 for attendees. The run is intended for those transitioning from road running to trails or anyone seeking a guided group run through a forested environment.
