About

Following the sell out success of our previous Epping Forest Wildwood Trail events, we’re excited to bring back the Epping Forest Half Marathon & Epping 10K!
This unique event also offers a refreshing alternative for runners searching for a London Half Marathon or London 10K, combining the challenge of trail running with the beauty of one of London’s most iconic woodland settings.
Set against the stunning backdrop of Epping Forest, both courses wind through ancient trails, offering a mix of well-maintained paths and natural forest terrain. Expect playful inclines, muddy patches, and plenty of scenic stretches that showcase the forest at its very best.
Whether you’re stepping up to the Epping Half Marathon distance or taking on the Epping 10K, this event is ideal for trail running enthusiasts, first-timers, and seasoned runners alike. Enjoy the chance to spot local wildlife as you navigate the trails and soak up the crisp, energising atmosphere of the forest.
Join us for the first Epping Forest Wildwood Trail event of 2026 and be part of the ever-growing Wildwood Trail Series. With previous events selling out, places are expected to fill fast.
Don’t miss your chance to experience one of the most scenic trail alternatives to a London Half Marathon or London 10K.
