The Wigan Trail 10k will be held again on Sunday 10th May 2020 from Springview Sports and Community Club, Wigan (formerly known as the Amberswood 10k).
ALL PRE-ENTRIES WILL GET THE EVER POPULAR FREE PIE AND PEAS!
The event takes place through the trails of Wigan’s Greenheart Amberswood Park, situated between Spring View & Hindley. This former mining area has been transformed into a beautiful 160 hectare nature reserve. To see how beautiful the area is now please take a look at our aerial footage of the 2018 race at the foot of the page.
The 10k Trail Race takes in many of the scenic bridleways of Amberswood, following a mixture of terrain from woodland trails to wide open gravel paths. The route is flat and open giving competitors the opportunity to challenge and beat personal bests.

Hi what is the min age for the 10k?
Hi! Is there a kids event before or after?
Hi Natalie, apologies a filter stopped me seeing your comment. There isn’t a kids event now, we just concentrate on the 10k, running two events concurrently was tough. For info there is a junior parkrun on Sundays at Skelmersdale.
Fab weather. Beautiful scenery. Brilliant organization/marshals. Thank you. See you next year.
