Overview

"Will the boats sail?" is a running joke with the Lakeland Trailers as the weather can prevent them from sailing - we even had too much water one year! We've been lucky in the last 3 years and you can't beat the stunning complimentary cruise along Ullswater to the start of the run, enjoying a classic performance from singer/songwriter Pete Lashley on the way. We have two, recently improved, stunning contingency routes (which people enjoyed in 2017 and 2018) so you can still enjoy the stunning trails along Ullswater's eastern shore and up to the viewpoint of Silver Crag just in case we can't get on the boats. At Side Farm, the 14k course will give you a challenge as you climb up to Boredale Hause, before an exhilerating descent back down to the Patterdale Valley with breathtaking views. We'll also have live music from Boom Dang and Pete Lashley, race commentary, food and drink all available at the start and finish. So, whether you're new to trail running, an experienced athlete, or simply looking for an unforgettable day out in the Lake District, a family-friendly, atmosphere and some amazing trail running awaits you!
