Ultra X: Spring Trail Series
About the event
The Spring Trail Series takes place on the Serpent Trail, a stunning route that weaves through the greensand hills, rivers, woodland, and lowland heath of the South Downs National Park. It is a habitat which is rarer than rainforest and home to a variety of rare and endangered species.
The Spring Trail Series offers three race distances: 75km, 50km and 25km.
As is always the case with Ultra X events, these are far more than just races, they are awesome experiences. At the start/finish there will be an expo selling merchandise, hot drinks, food and much more. You are actively encouraged to stay on after your race and enjoy the festivities, BBQ, and bar.
Runners will be able to purchase camping at the event village for the Friday and Saturday night at registration. Showers and toilets are available as is the option to hire a tent from Ultra X
