Berry & Bloom Trail Race

Porth Farm, nestled in the heart of rural beauty and in partnership with Maldwyn Harriers, invites runners to experience its Berry & Bloom Trail Run on Sunday, August 2nd. This charming family-friendly event offers two exciting options: a fun run for younger participants starting at 11:00 AM covering approximately one mile, and a main race beginning promptly at 11:30 AM with an approximate distance of five kilometers.
The trail run winds through the lush grounds of Porth Farm, offering runners breathtaking views of rolling hills and vibrant greenery. Participants can expect to traverse varied terrain, including grassy fields, winding trails, and perhaps even a few muddy patches if conditions are wet—making sturdy trail shoes highly recommended for optimal grip and comfort.
The main race caters to both affiliated and unaffiliated runners with entry fees set at £10 and £12 respectively. The event promises an engaging atmosphere filled with the sounds of nature and enthusiastic cheers from fellow participants, making it a perfect outing for families looking to enjoy the outdoors together. For younger competitors under 19 years old, there's also a dedicated race covering the same five-kilometer distance as the main event.
Registration is available online at wwwcentral.com/berry, ensuring that all interested runners can secure their spots well in advance of the event date. The fun run for those aged nine and under offers an even shorter but equally enjoyable course beginning at 11:00 AM. Under-9 participants must be accompanied by a parent or guardian to ensure everyone's safety.
This unique trail running experience is not suitable for wheelchairs or push chairs, focusing instead on the natural beauty and challenges of Porth Farm’s grounds. The Berry & Bloom Trail Run promises an unforgettable adventure in nature, perfect for runners looking to explore scenic trails while surrounded by blooming flowers and lush greenery.
