Run through the heart of the New Forest
The New Forest Road Run offers a completely different experience from a busy town or city event.
Both routes start and finish at Ocknell Campsite, following peaceful forest roads beneath ancient woodland and beside wide areas of open heathland.
Along the way, you may encounter the ponies, cattle, donkeys and deer that roam freely across this extraordinary landscape. Whether you are chasing a time or simply enjoying the surroundings, it is a run you will remember long after the finish.
Run amongst ponies, heathland and ancient woodland
This is a working, living landscape. The animals roam freely and are part of what makes the New Forest so special.
Wildlife always has priority. Please do not approach, feed or disturb the animals, and follow all instructions from marshals.
A road race with a true sense of place
Quiet forest roads, open skies and the chance to share the route with the animals that make the New Forest unique.

One Entry Per Runner
All entries must be completed individually for each runner. This ensures we have the correct details for everyone taking part.
We require each runner's full details, including their date of birth, as this is used to calculate age-group categories and age-group placings in the official results.
Individual entries also ensure that the correct runner is linked to their race number and finishing time on the day.
If you're entering with friends, family or a club, that's absolutely fine — just complete a separate entry for each person.
