The Coakham Bloodhounds are one of the oldest Bloodhound packs in the UK, and they hunt over a wide area in Kent and Sussex. They have been hunting "the cleanboot" since they were
founded in the 1970s. This means the hounds follow the natural scent of human runners who set off ahead of the pack - no other scent is used (whether animal or synthetic) and there is no
killing involved - the runners just get licked at the end of each hunt.

Coakham Bloodhounds Spring Ride 2025
at Barons Grange, Iden, Rye, East Sussex
There are two options of distances, one around 6 miles the other approximately 9 miles. The ride will be across open farmland,
river banks and through beautiful fruit orchards. The route is over flat ground, with marshals at gates and road crossings where needed.
This ride has allocated half-hour segments, so you will aim to arrive approximately 20-30 minutes before your start time, and then you can enjoy the ride as an individual or as a group. If you are
a solo rider wanting to ride with others, there are always friendly riders who don't mind you joining in with them.
There are various jumps along both routes, and they vary in size, so there is something for everyone, and all are optional.
There will be food and drinks available at the start and finish line, so don't forget some cash. Some amazing cakes, plus the regulars.. burgers, bacon rolls
etc.
