10km Triumph

10km trail / 477m elev gain / 477m elev loss

Sunday 27 April 2025 - 09h00

Not quite an easy leg shake out, but an awesome mix of a quad busting hill, a neverending hill - which of course does, and rewards you with expansive views - and glorious singletrack. This route explores a different side of Hogsback less often seen.

Good to Know

  • 2 Watertables, stocked with 32Gi electrolye drink, ButtaNutt products, fresh, seasonal fruit and biscuits

  • Route is well marked

  • This route goes up behind Hobbiton all the way to the top of the Kettlespout falls. Following plantation tracks to get to the top of Tor Doore at 1565m, there’s then a steep descent through the natural forest and all the way to the finish.
