The course

The course is 5k long. The course is at Highcliffe Beach, Highcliffe. The course is run on a combination of gravel paths, permanent paths and sand. Some sections of the course may accumulate mud, leaves and puddles after rain. Dependent on availability, marshals will be at key sections of the course, or signs will be in place.

Please remember that the parkrun uses shared paths. For the continued success of the event, please give way to other park users. This won't hurt your time, it won't stop you from getting a PB and it will make sure everyone continues to enjoy the event.

Please, wherever possible walk, jog, cycle or use public transport when attending the event. If you do have to drive, please consider car-sharing to reduce our impact on both the environment and other park users. Please also watch out for other park users when arriving and leaving. Parking may be limited so try to arrive early.

What people say

“Good sea front parkrun. Quite congested when crowded. Get to the front if you want to get on. Go for a coffee at the cliff top cafe afterwards too.”Matt Draper · 4 stars
“Highcliffe Beach parkrun – Beautiful, and Slightly Bonkers The moment we got out of the car, the icy wind cut straight through me, prompting me to question my sanity. We’d travelled down from Reading, and at that…”Paul Monaghan · 4 stars
