About The Marlow Donkey

The Marlow Donkey takes runners and walkers across the Chilterns on 4 October 2026, with trail routes of 25 km, 40 km or 50 km starting and finishing at Liston Hall in Marlow, Buckinghamshire. The event celebrates Thames Valley LDWA's 50th anniversary with a new route through the hills centred on Hambleden village, and the longest distance extending to Bix.

Participants must finish by 19:00, with maximum time limits of 8 hours for the 25 km route and 11 hours for the longer distances. A mass start for walkers on the 50 km route begins at 08:00, while others start between 08:15 and 09:30 depending on their pace. Organisers provide drinks, snacks at checkpoints along the way, and a simple meal at the finish. Timed e-certificates and a free badge are available after the event.
