Trust10 Trail Run

Join us for the Trust10 at Studland Bay and challenge yourself on this 10km trail run with breathtaking views.

  • Booking not needed
  • Free event

Trust10 running is about enjoying the landscapes and nature surrounding you rather than a competitive event supported by timing systems. Therefore, if timing is important to you, we recommend that you bring your own device to record your run. Our Trust10 10k trail run is a challenging multi terrain run involving some public roads. This is a regular event held on the 4th Sunday of the month from September to June. You don’t have to rely on marshals to get you round but they’ll be there to provide some extra motivation at points. If you can’t make the regular event, you can run our T10 trail at any time, you can find the route online by searching ‘trust 10 Studland komoot’. The course starts at Knoll Beach, uphill to Ballard Down, past Old Harry Rocks and back down to finish at Knoll Beach. Mixed terrain across beach, public road, gravel and grass pathways. Expected max duration 120 mins at walking pace. Please bring a water bottle with you. These can be filled at Knoll Beach.

Runners and spectators are advised to park in the Knoll Beach visitor car park, free parking for members and blue badge holders, seasonal rates will apply to non-members. Toilets and café are situated nearby.
