  • Super well organised, very welcoming and friendly environment. Great challenges that are thoughtfully created to be fun for all levels of participant.

    Campbell Walsh Avatar Campbell Walsh

    I completed my second QuestStars event a few weeks ago, and it was just as enjoyable as I remember my first—just a little soggier than the summer edition! These events are a fantastic opportunity for everyone to get involved and simply have a great time. Whether you're in it for the adventure or looking to push yourself competitively, there's something for everyone. The routes are always brilliantly planned, taking you through stunning locations and adding to the overall experience. If you're looking for a fun and well-organised challenge, I couldn’t recommend QuestStars more highly!

    Love these events! Did my first one over 10 years ago and they consistently impress. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a challenge and something a little different.

  • Had an excellent experience at the Chilterns event last weekend, the event was very well organised and as a first time participant I can confirm that the events are very beginner friendly with an excellent atmosphere throughout - it's definitely not only for regular runners or cyclists, there is something for everyone.

    Damien Avatar Damien

    Had an excellent time at the Questars event in Marple. The checkpoints were really well set out. It was our first event but the pre race briefing put our minds at ease and the after race catering was tasty. I would recommend anyone wanting an introduction to adventure racing to have a go at a Questars event.

  • Fantastic event with a great community feel. Highly recommended

    Sean Buchanan Avatar Sean Buchanan

    Brilliant well organised races that are really fairly priced and always in excellent locations! The organisers, Joe and Kim, work hard to put on races that are both challenging and friendly with a really inclusive feel, I can't recommend them enough!

    Jeremy Waite Avatar Jeremy Waite

    Great locations and varied routes for all levels of adventure racers. Multi-discipline events (I always go 6hrs Run-Bike-Kayak and make a full day of it). Has really helped improve my map reading skills as well. Get together with mates to do it and the day will be masses of fun. I've done Purbecks, New Forest, Surrey Hills and Cotswolds now. Keen to tick more off the list. Well organised events and very friendly.
