The Clumber Lakeside – Winter 2027 – Day One

This event is the Saturday event of the weekend.

We’re starting 2027 how we mean to go on … full of busy. This means that we’re hitting up another double event, full weekend takeover! Run the classic Clumber trail on the Saturday then hit it in reverse on Sunday! It’s been a good while since we were at Clumber so lets make it a doozy!

These stunning grounds steeped with history is the most popular National trust site in the country and for good reason. We’ll be bringing our six hour challenge along for you to complete as many loops as you can manage or maybe just enjoy the one loop, the choice is yours and anyone that makes it around will receive a top quality medal to add to their collection!

Event FAQs

Clumber Park is located 4 miles South East of Worksop, Nottinghamshire, S80 3AZ. For more information on the venue, including directions, accommodation, and more, please check out the Sherwood Pines Infomation Page.


You’ll be able to pick up your race number on the morning of the event at the aid station/start line. The park will be open from 8am, and you’ll be able to grab your race numbers shortly after then. Please allow yourself enough time to grab your number before the race briefing at 8:50 am and the start of the run at 9am.


There is a time limit of 6 hours for this event. This means that you need to have completed your final lap before the end of the 6 hours for it to be counted towards your final distance. You will not be allowed to start another lap of the course with 30 minutes of the event is remaining. Each lap will be roughly 7.198km long which means if you complete 3 laps you have done a half marathon, 6 laps, a full marathon, and 7 laps or more will be classed as an Ultra. You can finish your event at any time within the six hours, and as long as you have completed one lap then you will be classed as a finisher.

PLEASE NOTE:  This event is not a set distance but a 6-hour challenge event for you to complete as many laps of the course as possible within the time frame. Whilst you can run a half or a marathon with us, you’ll likely run a little further to complete the laps in the time frame. Please see below for a list of how far you’ll run for each number of laps.

The below table will be updated once the final route has been announced.

  • A fully unique and bespoke medal design just for this event.
  • All the food, drink, and nibbles that you could imagine at the aid station.
  • Dedicated first aiders on site for the full 6 hours.
  • Amazing support from the Rasselbock Family!


We will have a fully stocked aid station at base camp full of all your favorite items, although if you are expecting energy tablets, gels, and supplements, you may need to bring your own as our aid station tends to lean towards the more “enjoyable fuel”. Imagine Fudge, cakes, cookies, and jelly babies, homemade cakes, along with all the savory alternatives.


You are more than welcome to bring your own food and drink to the aid station. We will have a separate table for these so please make sure that your bottles or items are clearly labeled so that no one takes them by accident!


The route is currently a work in progress, but will be just over 7.198km long around the lakeside with roughly one third on tarmac paths and the rest on trails. We will update this section in the future with more details, but in the event of changes, the route will always be of the same length and character. You can view the current route here.


We do not have any secure baggage areas on site but you are more than welcome to leave your bags at the base camp. Whilst we can’t guarantee that they’ll be safe, there will always be someone from Rasselbock around.


Despite this route having decent stretches of path and tarmac, we would recommend trail shoes for this route, mainly due to it taking place in March and, let’s face it, there is a high chance that it will be cold and wet! So please make sure that you wear and bring with you adequate layers to keep yourself warm throughout the race and just as importantly, once you finish. Like all of our events going forward, we will be operating a bring your own bottle policy. We will not be supplying plastic cups or drinks receptacles at this event so that we can cut down on waste and do our part to help the environment. You will be required to bring your own water bottle, collapsible cup, or similar to the event. We will still have an array of liquids available for you to top up your bottles with at our well-stocked aid station!


We will not have sole use of the site and runners will not have the right of way and we will need to be considerate to all the other users of the area, be it walkers, cyclists, dog walkers, and children when passing through any of the “activity areas” of the park.


There are a selection of public toilets along the route and ample coffee shops dotted around the lake. We will also have a small number of portaloos at the start line.


There is a great selection of places to stay in or around Clumber Park, but we can fully recommend the Clumber Park Hotel & Spa which you can stay at using the discount code j1ra9 

‘Clumber Park Hotel & Spa is a hotel within close proximity to Clumber Park National Trust, just a stones throw away from the Clumber Lakeside Winter 2027 event. We have 73 bedrooms, with half being recently refurbished to a high standard. Also, with an on-site gym and pool, we’re the perfect place for a relaxing time, (or a last minute adrenaline station) before setting off raring to go.

Complimentary parking is also available at Clumber Park Hotel & Spa – Blyth Road, S80 3PA’
