Wye Valley Tunnel Run: Wyedean School, Sedbury
The Wye Valley Tunnel Run offers multiple organised running options that use the Wye Valley Greenway and the refurbished Tidenham Tunnel. Courses follow the former railway line and riverside paths, so most of the surface is compact stone path or tarmac. The route is generally flat but not perfectly smooth and includes a short 50 m rocky trail section and a few flights of steps on the Tintern Station routes.
Distances
- Colourbust 500 m and 2 km fun runs on laps of the Wyedean School football pitch

- Valley View Half Marathon two laps, out-and-back with 4 km in tunnel
