Overview

The route is an 8k course at Whinlatter forest with 360m of ascent. It reaches the summit of Seat How, is a mix of forest roads and narrower walking trails but has stunning scenery across the whole course. It’s based in England’s only mountain forest, it isn’t flat! We also offer a shorter 5k option, which we would recommend for those new to the sport or wanting less ascent. This is still a beautiful route, with 240m of ascent, but avoids the summit of Seat How. Part of both routes is identical, allowing all participants to start and finish together. We do not operate any time limits. Everyone is free to walk or run as much as they and their dog feel able to. We do run the course in both directions at different times of the year. The 8k This has been graded as RED. The 5k This has been graded as RED. Please note that some sections of the route are relatively steep – please ensure that you are only moving at a speed that you are comfortable with on those. This may mean holding your dog back.
