About Selworthy Stargazer
Night running under Exmoor's stars appeals to those seeking something different from road racing. The Selworthy Stargazer takes place on 30 October 2026 at the Camping and Caravanning Club site in Minehead, offering 5 km and 10 km trail options across the moorland's high ground. The undulating course traverses North Hill and Bossington Hill, taking in the summit of Selworthy Beacon, with good trails and tracks punctuated by technical sections that demand careful footwork.
As part of the Exmoor National Park Dark Skies Festival, runners experience the region as Europe's first Dark Skies Reserve, weather permitting. Reflective markings and strong marshal support keep participants safely navigated through the autumn darkness. The event finishes with locally made wooden medals and warm refreshments from Really Wild Coffee, rounding out an evening that celebrates both trail running and the night sky.
