Our second race, and the third in the 2025-26 Western Night League, is back in the Forest of Dean, at Bixslade

The Western Night League is a series of 60-minute score events in the local area, taking place after dark in the winter - headtorches required!

[Update on 14 November 2025] If any of you have read this update even though we haven't advertised it, please read again.

Please note the change of date, from Thursday 6th November, as originally published, to Wednesday 5th November

After the hill in Gloucester, we head to the relative 'plains' of Northern Hereford and its mix of trading estates and suburbia, with some un-lit recreation grounds, footpaths and country lanes.

Welcome to the first Western Night League event of the new season, on Painswick Beacon.

Headless Hill is the westernmost part of the Forest of Dean, overlooking Monmouth from the ridge that runs North from Staunton, before dropping steeply down to the Wye.

Roobinswood is a gem of a location close to the heart of Gloucester - although like The Dowards a couple of weeks ago, somewhat hilly - in fact just one distinctive conical hill dominating the Gloucester skyline.

Welcome to our September League and Local event at Danby Lodge.

We haven't MapRun at the Dowards for 6 years or thereabouts, so we make a most welcome return there for our next race.

The annual NGOC Chairman's Challenge is back!

After two largely forest races we revert back to an urban/rural mix for this race, our first in the small town of Mitcheldean.
