About the event

Dartmoor Traverse/Race With No Name

Surface: Mixed

Difficulty: Tough

Ascent: 4,000 feet

We have made this a guided challenge

The Dartmoor Traverse follows the Two Moors Way route (western route).

Who is it for?

This event will appeal to runners with a sense of curiosity and adventure, who are looking for a scenic and runnable way to cross Dartmoor at any time of year. It's also ideal for the first time ultra runner and those of you who want to do a Dartmoor Crossing with excellent. support from our three guides and a food drop at Widdecombe.  

Entrants need to be 20 at least to enter.

This is a challenging self navigation ultra, crossing Dartmoor National Park, with minimal ascent. At the 8 mile split near Yardworthy farm, you must take the western split, where the Two Moors Way splits in two and rejoins at the top car park above Widecombe (at the far end of Hameldown ridge) 

Our guides will take three levels of ability to the finish, hopefully within 10 hours.  We also have litters transport availability for this event. Every runner will get a momento of their achievement.

What's included:

  • GPX files optimised for all the leading watches and devices
  • Mandatory kit checks (for your own safety and well being)
  • Transport to the start/finish upon request

Pick up at Checkpoints
