About The Loop

The Loop is a 20-mile trail race that combines coastal paths with woodland running, starting and finishing at Broadsands Beach in Galmpton. The route follows the South West Coast Path from Broadsands through coves to Brixham, then around the harbour and marina to Berry Head. From there, it continues via coastal trails to Kingswear, taking in the climbs at Mansands and Scabbacombe Beaches along the way.

The second half turns inland, passing through Hoodown Wood and Long Wood with views across the River Dart, before the route loops back through Galmpton and Churston to return to the finish at Broadsands. The race starts at 9am with an 8-hour cut-off. Finishers receive a medal and a sweet treat.
