Portmellon Trail

About the Event

Introducing the PMT - PortMellon Trail for the first time in 2026, this exhilarating 12km trail run offers runners an unforgettable journey through the tranquil coastal village of Portmellon and the breathtaking Wet Bodrugan nature reserve. The course is designed to challenge even the most seasoned trail runners with its varied terrain and a total elevation gain of 350 meters.
Participants will find an aid station at the halfway mark, approximately 6km into the race, where they can refuel on water, electrolytes, snacks, and other essential supplies. The event also features competitive prizes for the top three male and female finishers as well as awards for age group winners. Adding to the excitement are the unique Mad Hatter Spot prizes awarded for outstanding costumes or creativity.
To accommodate the scenic setting of Portmellon, we encourage runners to carpool and park at the main Mevagissey car park, a short 10-minute walk from the start line. There will be designated areas where participants can leave their extra gear before heading out on the course.
The race kicks off promptly at 9:00 AM, promising an immersive experience that combines physical challenge with natural beauty.
Runners are invited to immerse themselves in this stunning coastal setting and enjoy a day filled with scenic views and technical trails.
