Westonbirt is the National Arboretum, home to over 2,500 different species of tree! This includes 5 national collections, including rare trees from across the world. The route is incredibly beautiful, varied and interesting as you run through the different areas dedicated to specific species. The solid terrain underfoot gives you a surface more akin to a solid road surface, with all the beauty of a trail run. 

We have a choice of Half Marathon, 10km, 5km and 1 Mile Fun Run making this a great event for all the family and for runners of all abilities. 

Westonbirt is a great relaxing family day out with lots of activities for children too. As part of your race ticket you are welcome to stay and enjoy the arboretum for the whole day, and family, friends and supporters can gain access to the arboretum for just £5/car when travelling with a runner, for special access before 9am, and stay for the day too. Normal visitor ticket prices will be payable after 9am.
