Chichester Harbour Coastal Run 2026

The Chichester Harbour Trail Run is one of our most-loved events and for good reason. Taking you around the stunning Chidham Peninsula and along peaceful harbour-side paths, this route is packed with some of the most spectacular views in the South.

As you run, you'll enjoy sweeping panoramas across Chichester Harbour, a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, with long-reaching vistas towards Bosham Hoe, Itchenor, East Head, and the rolling South Downs beyond.

The course is designed to immerse you in the landscape: quiet trails, coastal paths, and wildlife-rich scenery that will leave you breathless - in the best way! At low tide, runners also get the unique chance to cross a short stretch of foreshore, making this an experience like no other.

Flat and friendly, the route is perfect for an early-season challenge, whether you're chasing a PB, building confidence, or simply looking to enjoy the atmosphere of a great running event. With two distances to choose from, we welcome runners of all levels and abilities to join the adventure. As you cross the finish line, you will receieve well-earned medal, a refreshing drink, and exciting finisher's goodies.
