Salomon | Trail Half Hanner

in the stunning trails and tracks of the world-renowned Coed y Brenin forest in the Eryri National Park. This unique marathon is now in it's 11th year and is what started it all at Run Coed y Brenin back in 2012. The race is considered as one of Wales’ finest forest trail marathons taking in fully marked trail single track, forest roads and paths in some of the most stunning forestry and heathland in the UK. In 2024 we are super-excited to be once again part of the Golden Trail National Series for the UK! The Golden Trail National Series (a derivative of the Golden Trail World Series), aims to bring the strongest and most ambitious runners of off-road racing into a single national ‘super circuit’. Through its original formula, the Golden Trail National Series gives participants the opportunity to confront themselves at a ‘local’ level with many of the national and international athletes of trail running and skyrunnning, with the 10 strongest to be offered a place at the GTNS UK final for a chance to then be invited to participate in the Grand Finale. Continuing for 2024 you can also come and experience the atmosphere and the cheers of the crowds at our new Golden Trail Cheer Zones, a brand-new addition to our UK / NL events this year!For spectators this will be your best chance at securing some exclusive Golden Trail goodies, such as caps and handbells, as you roar the runners up some of the most challenging sections of this year’s Series. At the Salomon Trail Marathon Wales event the Cheers Zone will be based on the infamous ‘Sting in the Tail’ section and we’re inviting spectators to make their way to this steep uphill section of the course to support the runners and bring this part of the forest alive!
