Overview

Gone Wild Festival Trail Races

We’ve partnered with Gone Wild Festival to bring you the Gone Wild Trail Races – an epic test of endurance where the finish line is just the start of the adventure!

This is way more than just a race – it’s an all-day adventure! Included in your ticket is access to everything Gone Wild festival has to offer – activities, live performances, family entertainment – everything.

The Race

We kick off with the kids races at 10.00am. They’re based on a 1K lap and children aged 3-11 can take part. Under 8s run one lap and over 8s run two. Parents or responsible adults
are welcome to run with the kids without purchasing a race ticket. However, please note that you will still need to have a festival entrance ticket.

At 11.00am it’s the start of the 10K. Runners will do two laps of a multi-terrain route taking in many of the highlights of the castle estate. The 5K starts ten minutes later and does one lap
of our 5K trail course.

After the races we’ll be doing podium presentations on the main stage. Whether you’re looking to beat your personal best or just fancy joining in for fun, everyone is welcome!

And that’s not all!

Once you’ve conquered the course, a world of adventure awaits! Your entry includes access to:

● Live music from Clean Bandit, Lucy Spraggan, and more.
● Inspirational talks from Bea Leask, Phil Learny & Adam Clayton
● Over 100 adrenaline-fuelled activities – From quad biking to abseiling, axe throwing to survival skills.
● Incredible family entertainment with Maddie Moate, science shows, the Roller Disco, and jaw-dropping performances
● The ultimate family party, silent disco & so much more!

Got family or friends who’d rather watch from the sidelines?! You’ll receive an exclusive spectators discount in your confirmation email, so they can come along, cheer you on and celebrate with a day of family fun!

Results

nb At all our races we operate a one prize per person policy and the top 3 overall are excluded from the Category results. So if a Vet40 comes first overall he or she will receive the prize for first overall & all other Vet 40s of that gender will move up one place in the results.
