Trace the beautiful ridges, hills and valleys in the borderland country of England and Wales
The Midwinter Mortimer Trail, the sister event to the Midsummer Mortimer Trail consists of two distances of mixed trail/forest/road runs along the beautiful Mortimer Trail, between the historic market towns of Ludlow, Shropshire and Kington, Herefordshire. Starting at Ludlow Castle, the MMT(W) Ultra is a mere 30ish mile multi terrain run. The route takes you through the Marches of England, with extensive forests, limestone tops and gentle pastures in an area dominated in mediaeval times by the Mortimer family, one of the most powerful Norman earldoms. The MMT(W) Croft15 follows the last half of the Ultra route, starting at the lovely Riverside Inn, Aymestrey.
