Location: Eastbury Park

The Dark Dorset 10 is an exciting new event that offers runners the chance to pluck up the courage to do a twilight 10k through Dorsets most haunted parish.
With the start and finish in the park in front of Eastbury House runners will follow an entirely off-road route taking them through woods into the park at Chettle. Turning back towards Eastbury House the eerie journey continues through Bloody Shard Gate, scene of a bloody skirmish between soldiers and the Kings chase keepers, which resulted in a sergeant losing a hand. This was then buried in a local church yard but frequently becomes restless and can be seen searching for its owner in this corner of the Cranborne Chase.
Then its past the Chettle Long barrow before returning to the Eastbury Park, where the drive also has a ghost, a headless horseman driving a coach pulled by headless horses. Fear not, this only happens at midnight, so all the more reason to up the pace whilst out on the course!
