Hell of the Ashdown 2027
28 February, 2027 @ 8:00 am – 4:00 pm

As hill-packed early season challenges go, Hell of the Ashdown is right up there with the UK’s best. Its challenging parcours and the risk of “interesting” weather in February has if anything helped cement its iconic status, with recent editions selling out within 24 hours of entries going on sale.
The 102km route has just over 1750 metres of climbing, with notable climbs including Toys Hill, Markbeech, Wych Cross, Twyford Lane, Kidds Hill (The Wall), Groombridge and Bayleys Hill.
The next edition takes place on Sunday 28 February 2027.
HOTA has a new event for 2027 at Lingfield Racecourse and a new route. Don’t expect it to be any easier – they’ve found some more hills!
Entries open 5 November 2026.
