About Harrier:
Why compromise on style, functionality or value when you can have all three? The Harrier Trail Running collection is designed to bring the joy back into trail running whilst providing friendly support and advice should you need it.
Our approach of designing and developing trail running kit directly from ideas, feedback and advice from our customers makes us different from the rest. We listen to what you want from your gear and bring it to life, we are made by trail runners.
"I grew up in the foothills of the Peak District and have always loved being out in the hills. My journey began rambling in Derbyshire with my mum when I was young. It progressed to long-distance trail running in the White Peak and more recently fell running in the Dark Peak and beyond.
As someone relatively new to trail running it was difficult to know what was essential for my kind of runs. Also which design features I specifically needed for my trail runs. So I founded a different type of brand for trail runners. One that is built around quality, design and value and without pretense.
The concept for Harrier was born from my own desire to have great quality kit that would last a long time. It's about bringing simplicity and fun back to trail running. We provide everything you need and nothing you don't."
Kate Mackenzie, Director & Founder of Harrier Trail Running
This is very timely, I received an email from OS this morning as they are updating their site. I've found it really useful in the past for printing off small sections of map (A4 size) which I then fold in half and place in a small waterproof map case made by Ortlieb (A5 size). I find this really helpful as although I can use my phone or watch for navigation I have something that doesn't rely on a battery and gives me a wider view of the area I'm running in. I still have the trail on my Garmin watch but I mainly just use that for quick glances.
Ah, great ideas Jon for the paper maps!
Really useful video. Thanks!
Thanks for the video. However I find that the arrow marker is very often inaccurate and a long distance away from my actual position on my iPhone which limits its usefulness. I don’t know if you have found a way to resolve this?
Get a Samsung haha seriously though the arrow on my phone gps using the OS app is absolutely spot on within a foot. In your case it maybe the area I generally hike around North Kent. They usually respond to emails within 24 hrs or phone calls very swiftly
