Hibernal Hills 50k is a single loop race around the beautiful hills of Hampshire and West Sussex and is a great ultra to get the year off and running.
Starting and finishing in the stunning location of Queen Eliazabeth Country Park under Butser Hill, runners with follow some great countryside trails, rolling hills and a few steep climbs but on the whole, a very runnable route. After leaving QECP, the route runs down to Stansted House, then up along some great wooded trails through Compton to Harting Downs and South Harting before heading back to the start.
There is just over 3000 ft of elevation and as with all our races, it is fully marked for easy navigation and regular aid stations. It is a UTMB Index race and worth 2 ITRA points.
