Taking place on Sunday, September 14, 2025, the Rye Ancient Trails 30K and 15K offer participants a unique running experience through the picturesque landscapes surrounding Rye, East Sussex. The courses wind through historic woodlands, orchards, and quiet country lanes, linking the Norman churches of Rye, Iden, Beckley, Northiam, and Peasmarsh. The 30K route includes approximately 1,500 feet of elevation gain, while the 15K option turns at Peasmarsh. Both routes start and finish in the medieval town of Rye. Entry fees are £29.87 for the 15K and £34.10 for the 30K, with on-the-day entries available at £35.00 each, subject to availability. All finishers receive a bespoke medal, with prizes awarded to the top male and female finishers in various categories.
