The Dartmoor Crossing / Great Escape
The Dartmoor Crossing / Great Escape is an annual trail running event held in Devon, UK, centered around Dartmoor's rugged moorland. The event features two races: The Dartmoor Crossing, a challenging 33.5-mile "baby ultra" that traverses open moorland, two 600m summits, and three moorland villages, with significant ascent and descent; and The Great Escape, a 15.5-mile long half-marathon starting from Princetown, covering the final section of The Crossing route with scenic moorland vistas and a descent into Ivybridge. Both courses are fully marked and marshalled, with aid stations and water stops.
The event finishes at Ivybridge Rugby Club, offering a wilderness running experience with bespoke medals and optional event t-shirts. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
