Travel Distances 2025-26 – National League

Here at TSZ we have put together a list of all the travel distances for the 2025-26 National League season.

The distances have been determined by using the shortest route by road on Google Maps at the time of writing. The mileage shown is for the round-trip from a team's home stadium to the opponent's home stadium, and back again, for all away games in the league campaign. This is strictly a 'by road' analysis, other means of transport (e.g. train) are not considered.

Total distances

  • Cornwall-based side Truro have the furthest distance to travel for league away fixtures in the entirety of English domestic football in 2025-26, with their round-trip average coming in at over 630 miles!
  • Midlands outfit Solihull, by comparison, have under 250 miles to travel on average.

What is the longest away trip in the National League?

  • The fixture between Gateshead and Truro involves a 930-mile round trip for local fans of each - the longest league trip in English football in 2025-26.
  • Truro represent the longest away day for 14 of their 23 opponents in the National League.

What is the shortest away trip in the National League?
