Entries are now open for the Dulverton Trail Fun Run and Canicross 2024 – let’s spread the word!  Share this link with all the details with all your running and canicross friends: https://visitdulverton.com/dulverton-trail-fun-run-and-canicross/

For the fourth consecutive year, runners of all ages and abilities are invited to enter the event which will take place on the morning of Sunday 15 September.  With the start and finish taking place on the Exmoor Lawns alongside the River Barle in front of Exmoor House, the routes of 5km and 10km guide runners across beautiful Exmoor countryside.  Who will be brave enough to tackle the steep woodland track that has become known as the Dulverton Demon?  Marshals will guide you along the river, with water stops too.

All finishers are awarded the tasteful wooden medal designed and created by our friends at Exmoor Engraving.

Dulverton has long been known as a particularly dog-friendly town – with dogs welcome in all our pubs and many of our shops – and there is the opportunity to run either the 5km or 10km routes as a traditional canicross race – with all the fun of letting your dog(s) help you along the paths and up and down the hills!  A special trophy will be awarded to the winning dog on the day.

Many thanks to our generous local sponsor – Oggies Music Shop of Dulverton.  Pay them a visit to discover an Aladdin’s cave of musical instruments, music, sheet music, instrument repairs and beautifully repurposed instruments transformed into other objects such as table lamps!
