Course
A demanding all-terrain race of about 7 miles over the Malvern Hills, with steep ascents and descents on varying, often unstable ground. The route mixes muddy grass, rocky woodland trail, open hillside and a rocky descent from the Worcestershire Beacon summit at 1,395ft, with a level section circling the quarries. Single-file pinch points on the sharp climbs, and views over four counties and into Wales.
