Wimbleball Trail Run & Canicross
The Wimbleball Trail Run & Canicross events are held at Wimbleball Lake in Exmoor, Devon, and form part of the wider Wimbleball Sports Festival. Races use traffic-free trails around the lake and combine countryside scenery with the wider festival atmosphere.
Available distances include:
- 5K Trail
- 10K Trail
- Under-12 5K
- 5K Canicross
- 10K Canicross
The programme includes dedicated canicross races for runners with dogs and a junior 5K for younger participants. Organisers describe the events as family-friendly and provide a professional event team to manage course marking, registration and race-day logistics. Course maps and detailed participant information are supplied in advance.
The Trail Run & Canicross events sit alongside other festival disciplines such as triathlon, lake swimming, cycling, aquabike and aquathlon, creating a multisport weekend atmosphere. Organisers are implementing sustainability measures across the festival, including a transition to cupless provision, reduced single-use plastics, optional medals with a charity donation for opt-outs, and reuse of swim hats where possible.
Participants should expect marked trails, scenic Exmoor surroundings and separate canicross options as part of a professionally organised endurance-sport weekend at Wimbleball Lake. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
