Located in the Silverdale and Arnside Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty this undulating approx 18 mile route is eminently runnable and is a perfect introduction to distance trail running or walking.
It doesn't have any major climbs, but this circular route does include varied trails, takes in many of the local attractions... including the Fairy Steps and Arnside Knott but adds some new sections such as Arnside Tower and the stunning Quakers Stang.
The route incorporates many of the same sections of trail as Silverdale Circuit, but most are done in reverse so it works as a standalone event or in addition to the existing route. It's incredible how different it feels by going the other way, if anything this route seems to flow more naturally and is arguably easier to navigate.
Included in race entry fee is a comprehensive route description, timing, fully stocked check point with a wide variety of provisions, a bespoke medal for all finishers and hot meal for all entrants.
Please note we may enforce a mandatory kit list dependant on weather forecast but you should be prepared to carry:
We will have 2 start times, 8:30 for walkers and 9:30 for runners. Everyone should be finished by 15:00 but we won't enforce a strict cut-off for this.
