Strictly for the stoke — one of England's finest trail centres, turned up to 11.

  • Date: Saturday 9 May 2026
  • Location: Hamsterley Forest, County Durham
  • Format: Funduro (timed enduro-style)
  • Distance: ~25 miles / 8 timed stages
  • Entry: £58 adults (15+) | £13 juniors (Hammers Jam)

Back for a triumphant third time, the Hamsterley Beast Funduro delivers eight timed stages across Hamsterley Forest's brilliant trail network. Expect everything from fast flow to chunky tech, rooty staircases and moorland descents — all finishing with the legendary Beast stage, a colossal five-trail combo that drops you nearly the full length of the valley.

After the ride, relax in the arena with food from Caps Off, craft beer from McColls Brewery and coffee from the Barista Sisters, followed by prize presentation and camping under the stars. The whole event raises money for Great North Air Ambulance Service (GNAAS).
