Meanwood Holly Hustle

Gear up for an exhilarating forest trail run that challenges with its rigorous uphills and rewards with exhilarating downhills! Kicking off in Meanwood, the Holly Hustle showcases some of Leeds' finest trails. Traverse the beautiful Meanwood Park and The Hollies, renowned for its meticulously maintained paths through extensive woodlands and a diverse collection of flower species. Continue onto the stunning Meanwood Valley Trail, passing iconic landmarks like the Seven Arches viaduct and Adel Crag. Expect a course that promises a muddy adventure, so suitable footwear is a must for all runners. The technical nature of the trail, with its narrow paths and challenging sections, means headphones aren’t recommended to ensure full awareness. The course also includes a short stretch on a private road, which will be marshalled—runners should stick to the pavement where feasible. Embrace the challenge and enjoy the thrill of this dynamic outdoor experience!
