BigSky Trails (AIR)

The grand finale of the Classic Element Trail Series, BigSky, begins at sunrise from the breathtaking vantage point of Hyde Common—one of the highest spots in the New Forest National Park. As dawn breaks and your journey unfolds, you’ll set off beneath a vast canopy of southern English sky, with panoramic views stretching endlessly in every direction. Traverse wide-open plains, winding forest paths, and wild landscapes teeming with free-roaming wildlife. The event radiates a uniquely welcoming and laid-back atmosphere, making it a standout experience. The course is fully marked and marshaled, with two aid stations on the 18-mile route and three on the marathon, plus additional water stops along the way. Both distances highlight the New Forest’s most stunning scenery before culminating in an exhilarating final stretch along Hampton Ridge, leading you back to Hyde Common. Every finisher earns a custom event medal and the chance to relax, refuel, and soak in the awe-inspiring views of the New Forest National Park. Are you ready to run under the BigSky?
