A return to off-road racing by Erme Valley Harriers, with a new exciting Fell Run. Will contain some challenging junior races routes. This will held on a Wednesday evening in the summer. Race approx 10k and 450m of climb, you will have stunning views over the South Hams.
The route is now confirmed and agreed with the main landowners and DNPA. Parking at park and ride, short walk to Race HQ and registration at the rugby club, then a little warm up walk (1km) to the start on edge of moor Gr 654569 . Junior races start and finish here. Seniors races starts here but finish back at rugby club.

Fab senior route with a brisk start up Western Beacon then crossing open moor to loop down, around and up to Weatherdon, some quick track followed by a tussocky scramble to take you to Glasscombe Ball then fast down to the stream crossing at Scada Brook, (what goes down must come up) and a sharp rise up to Ugborough Beacon then a second stream crossing at Lud Brook, and across to Western for a very fast descent to the finish. There are clear tracks and trods in places but sound route finding will help with off-piste sections. There may be some some changes for 2023

2022 Route is shown here. >>>
