About Sussex Downs Trail Run
Held at Plumpton Racecourse on the edge of the South Downs National Park, the Sussex Downs Trail Run takes place on 28 November 2026 with three distances to choose from: 10.8 km, 15.5 km, or 21.3 km. Each route begins with a tree-lined section before climbing up to the South Downs Way, offering views across the Sussex countryside, Seven Sisters Country Park and towards the sea. The elevation gains range from 200 m on the shortest route to 382 m on the longest.
All three distances follow a loop towards Brighton with a descent from the hilltop and a flat final 3 km back to the finish. Pink arrows and tape mark the trails throughout, with caution signs at hazards and road junctions. The event includes water stations, first aid cover, chip timing and marshals on course.
