Organiser's description

The Something Wild Trail Running Festival is a family friendly trail running event at Dartmoor National Park. It takes place at Huccaby Farm, nestled in a secluded valley and surrounded by the fabulous landscape of Dartmoor. A perfect little haven for trail runners and their families!

Our HQ for the event is the large and dry Cow Shed. That’s where you’ll find the caterers, tables and chairs, the registration area, a bouncy castle, the feedstation & finish line and the band that’s playing on Saturday evening.

A field has been set aside for parking adjacent to the cow shed, opposite the farm house. The campsite is just across the road by the river. And the Forest Inn Pub is less than 10 minutes walk up the hill.

We offer various races with fantastic routes for all levels: an ultra-marathon, a marathon, a half marathon, 5K and 10K races as well as kids races. We’ve rescheduled the races again this year to allow people to compete in the 10K on Sunday and one of the longer races on Saturday. We will be publishing the best aggregate times for the two events too. All courses include tough climbs, enjoyable downhills and, of course, Dartmoor’s best trails and views.
