The Maverick X Series Afan Forest

The Maverick X Series Afan Forest 2025 is a trail running event held in Afan Forest Park, South Wales, known for its scenic woodland and challenging terrain.

The courses feature a mix of gravel tracks and single trails, passing wind turbines, rolling Welsh hills, and heathland streams.

The finale includes a tough 2.5 km climb called "The Wall." The event emphasizes environmental care with plastic-free outposts and requires runners to bring reusable cups. It offers fully marked, timed courses with multiple aid stations. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
