Returning for 2016 and welcoming back the tremendous Quantock Hills in Somerset. They truly are a wonderful place to be and with some epic trails to explore we thought the perfect place to bring you for our next event of the series! With captivating views of the Bristol Channel, Wales, Blackdown Hills, Exmoor and the Somerset Levels you should be as inspired as one of our greatest poets, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, once was.
Team Maverick have searched the south for the finest and toughest routes. We want you to leave our event with, not only, an enormous sense of achievement but also with the beauty of the English countryside etched into your minds. We have continued our theme of bringing you another route in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. We hope you will be as taken aback as we were after running this route with a mosaic of heathland hill tops and valley woodlands. Take in fantastic views across the hills, look out for red deer on the adjacent hill tops and the ancient oak pollards in Willoughby Cleeve. This route really has everything, from open heathland, to technical wooded single track and of course... HILLS! We look forward to welcoming you back to the finish line as true Mavericks after this one.....the outdoors awaits.
As with all Maverick events you can expect up to 3 on-course hydration and nutrition outposts provided by OTE, along with finisher T-shirts and medals for all competitors. There will also be prizes for the winners of each distance male and female.
