The Wallop
28th Nov 26
Welcome to The Wallop
We are delighted to be returning to the stunning Farleigh Wallop Estate for the third year of The Wallop.
This year we’ll be hosting the event from Grammarsham Dairy, with parking on the hardstanding around the farm buildings and our welcome, start and finish line based inside the barn. It creates a fantastic event hub where we’ll gather before the race and welcome you back afterwards for hot drinks, mince pies and a bespoke finishers medal.
The route remains our much-loved 21km trail, set entirely within the private Farleigh Wallop Estate. Aside from the new start and finish location, the course is unchanged, offering the same flowing woodland trails, rolling countryside and fantastic scenery that runners have come to love.
Whether you’re joining us for the first time or returning for another year, we look forward to welcoming you for another memorable day on the trails.
Minimum age 18 on day of event.

Farleigh Wallop Estate has an expansive network and variety of trails, from narrow woodland paths to wide gravel tracks weaving through the forest as well as skirting acres of open land.
We are delighted to be hosting The Wallop at the Estate. We plan to use the same route as 2025, with a couple of minor tweaks.
Farleigh House, Basingstoke, RG25 2HT
On arrival at the venue please follow race signage to the parking, once parked you’ll see Blended Trails flags leading you towards the barn. Come and say hello and we’ll get you checked in for the run.
There’s no cut off time, and we have friendly tail runners to support you.
There are no prizes, all finishers receive a bespoke event specific finisher medal.
A superb trail made up of tracks, gravel, and pathways with plenty of open space and the canopy-covered paths.
The route will be shared on Strava and OS with GPX files to download the week before race day. We will keep you up to date, and let you know when the route information is live online.
Please do not attempt to access the route before the race, we have exclusive access for race day only.
Trail shoes are essential.
Please bring a water bottle, soft flask, or collapsable cup to the event. Although there will be plenty of water we won’t be supplying cups as we are working hard to minimise the impact on the environment.
Toilets are open from 8am until 4pm, which will be close to the start and finish line.
We do not have a secure baggage area on site; please leave your non-essentials in your car.
18 on the day of event.
Yes, there is event parking which is included in your entry. Please do car share where you can, we’re very keen to reduce the impact of our events on the environment. Car sharing can significantly reduce our individual carbon footprint.
We’re committed to the Jog-on campaign to reduce the number of retired running shoes going to landfills. Please bring your old shoes to our event (and all our future events), so we can ensure they are recycled responsibly. Further information is below. We are also committed to sustainable medals, cupless water stations (no waste).
We’ll have a gazebo with some of our kit. All products can be purchased online. You’ll need to allow 10 days for delivery from the point of order, so please order early if you’d like a race day T-shirt.
Our events are heavily dependent on support and volunteer help. We are very grateful for any help you can offer.
Please click here to see how you might be able to help, and what we offer as a thank you.
Water stations at 6.5k and 13.5k
Water and squash will be available at the start and finish lines. Along the route, you’ll find water stations at 6.5K and 13.5K, both positioned at the bottom of descents with climbs just after.
We recommend topping up your hydration packs or bottles here. To reduce waste, these water stations are cupless and will not be marshalled, so please remember to turn off the taps. Thanks!
A great way to be involved.
If you enjoy the buzz of race day and the social aspect of being part of an event then volunteering is a great way to be involved.
Without volunteers we would not be able to organise events, the support that we have is fantastic and is a big part of the runners’ experience of the day.
