The Trionium Leith Hill Half was voted the Best Race in Britain in 2015 (Runner's Word, February 2016).
The run starts on the Nower, proceeds along footpaths and bridleways to the picturesque village of Westcott, and then turns left to climb up the rural byway of Wolvens Track to the Plough Pub at Coldharbour, before making a right-hand turn to scale the last few hundred metres of ascent to the top of Leith Hill, the highest point in southeastern England (and with views of distant London and the South Downs on a clear day).
Apparently there is no higher ground between Leith Hill and the Urals. The route returns along the same track, back to the finish. Woolvens Lane has been surfaced for the lower 2 miles, making it a much easier run - no puddles.
