Trust10 Trail Run at Ickworth Estate
Join us to run a beautiful 10K trail run around the historic parkland at Ickworth Estate.
- Booking not needed
- Free event
Join us on the fourth Sunday of every month at 9.30am for your briefing in front of the iconic Rotunda and start shortly after.
Trust10 at Ickworth Estate is two loops of our multi use trail – complete them both and you’ve done a 10k! Or complete the first 5k loop and call it a day, and build up to more distance as you feel confident. There is no pressure to complete the full 10km, just breathe in the surroundings and nature (and possibly enjoy some coffee and cake afterwards at the Porter's Lodge café!)
There are no facilities along the route so please take a water bottle with you to stay hydrated. The route is waymarked with arrows, and a map can be seen when registering. The event may be cancelled in adverse weather conditions.
This is a completely free event, you do not need to be a National Trust member to take part and admission is included for any runners taking part. Please note: we have removed the need to book this event, please just turn up at the correct time if you wish to take part.
Spectators will be required to either show a valid membership card or pay for admission on entry.
Refreshments will be available for runners and spectators from 9am.
Please note that runners with dogs are not permitted.
Please park in the overflow car park.
