The Maverick Dark Oxfordshire Trail 2026 SATURDAY 7 NOVEMBER 2026 STONOR PARK Welcome to the Maverick Dark Oxfordshire Trail run. If you enjoy trail running in the daylight, then you are in for a real treat running in the dark! It's an amazing experience; your senses are heightened, you immerse yourself deep in the surroundings, with your head torch on, the trails streak past you at warp speed, and you concentrate on making that perfect foot placement so as not to take a tumble. Starting and finishing in Stonor Park, which is split by the River Thames and nestled in the Chiltern Hills, this location can only be described as quintessential middle England. We love the Oxfordshire Trail race, so it was only fitting that we experience this area at night. The 3 routes are all set in the estate which is home to fallow deer and wallabies... yep, we have actually seen a wallaby there! All the routes are relatively challenging, and with 3 to choose from, there is something for everyone. Please note, there is no outpost on the Short route. Make sure you end the season strong and put this Dark Series event in your calendar as it's going to be a corker!....... And remember - The Darkness Awaits... Unfortunately, you will not be able to take part with your dog during our Dark Series events.

The Maverick Dark Castle Trail 2026 - Friday SATURDAY 21 NOVEMBER 2026 CORFE CASTLE Back for its fourth year, and due to popular demand we have added a Friday evening run! The Maverick Dorset Dark Trail has become one of the most unique Maverick events in our calendar! We are extremely lucky to have been given the opportunity to race from the iconic Corfe Castle, so this is the perfect opportunity for anyone wishing to check out the ruins up close. Soaring above the village of Corfe, the early Norman castle is an unforgettable sight. Corfe Castle was built in the reign of William the Conqueror to control passage through the Purbeck Hills via a road between Swanage and Wareham. There was a fortress at this spot long before the Normans; however, there may have been a Roman military presence here, and certainly there was a wooden palisade here as early as the 9th century. As you leave the stone bridge and head down through the beautiful village of Corfe, you find yourself heading across Corfe Common and towards the quaint village of Church Knowle, before heading up onto the ridge at Knowle Hill with sweeping views across Purbeck. You will see the lights of Poole Harbour in the distance and the glow of Corfe Castle to your right. The Long and Middle routes continue along the ridge to Stone Hill Down, before meandering through some tight single track towards the famous Blue Poole. The trails here are muddy and tight, making the Darkness feel exhilarating. These sections of woodland and open heath are home to herds of Sika deer, so don't be alarmed if your head torch shines on lots of eyes watching you from the woodland. The trail conditions on this route are going to be soft & muddy during the month of November, but there are a few sections of the route that are hard-packed or on road. Regardless, the routes are suitable for all levels of runner. There will be hot food and drink back at the venue, fire pits for roasting marshmallows and a real festive vibe. We really hope you will join us for this fantastic event. Please note this is NOT a dog-friendly event, we are unable to have dogs within the event venue.

We’ll be heading back to the lovely Rosliston Forest again in for a stomp around in the mud with our special short format. The runs will be a little shorter than usual, only 4 hours long on a 4km loop, but you can still expect the full Rasselbock experience on the day! You may attempt to complete as many laps as possible over the full four hours, or you may choose to finish just one, either way, you will be a finisher and receive your bespoke medal* when you tap out. If you're after the Rasselbock love and care, but everything on a smaller scale with fewer runners around then this has to be the event for you.

We’re excited to bring you the first of our STAR Backyard Trail Events, starting in the lovely village of Peaslake. This is the first of three events, with Holmbury St. Mary and Shere following soon (dates to be confirmed). How It Works: The event runs for 3 hours from 6:00pm to 9:00pm. You’ll aim to complete as many 5km laps as you can in that time. No chip timing—just a race number to wear and a wristband for every lap you complete. NEW THIS YEAR - Team Event: Enter as a team of three, each individual runs one loop then passes the baton (or similar) onto the next individual. Each runner must stay in their turn and the winning team will be decided by the amount of laps or in the case where teams have completed the same number of laps, it will be decided on the team with the quicker time. The Course: Starting at Peaslake Village Hall, the route heads clockwise through the Walking Bottom Car Park, followed by a gentle 2km ascent up towards Pitch Hill. After that, it’s mostly downhill back to the start to mark off your lap. Heads Up: This is a head torch event, so be sure to bring one to light your way.
