The Festival of Endurance at Hever Castle routes
The Bastion, the final stronghold of a medieval castle, features a 3.8km river and lake swim, a true toughie of a 180km bike course with 3,000m of climbing and a 42.2km run course that takes place largely off-road including running through the grounds of the beautiful Chiddingstone Castle. The event has generated rave reviews, helping grow this event into one of the truly iconic long-distance triathlons in the world.

The Festival of Endurance at Hever Castle reviews
Did the Half Marathon in 2019
A very well organised event, lovely course consisting of two laps. A mostly trail run with a bit of road, very small stretches of the run where it’s too narrow to pass other runners, it wasn’t a problem though.
Would highly recommend
