Bewl Water Spring

A scenic run starting from the Bewl Water Visitor Centre and following the Bewl round the reservoir route. All four courses are run on a combination of undulating rural wooded trail and along some quiet country lanes, with lovely views of the lake for most of the route. This is one of the most scenic events I stage in the High Weald Kent Countryside around the largest reservoir in the South East of England and it attracts both novice and experienced runners, with a multi-national field represented. 

Runners World rated as one of the top 10 marathons in the U.K.
