Lakeland Paws Dogs@Dodd
This canicross event in Dodd Wood is part of the finale weekend of the fifth Lakeland Paws series and is run as a double header. The course is fully marked, chip timed, and GPX files are available.
The route uses a mix of forest roads and trails with views across Bassenthwaite Lake to the Northern Fells. Most of the course is on wide trails, so two dogs per runner are normally allowed, but some sections are narrower and the final descent is relatively steep; runners must control pace and use suitable harnesses. Harnesses are available to borrow from Non Stop Dog Wear. Runners may enter without dogs.
There are two course options:
- 8K loop with 370 m of ascent
- 5K route with 210 m of ascent
Entry details: minimum age 16 or older and an entry fee of £20. Entries opened on 27 April 2026 and close on 23 April 2027 at 12:00. The event is presented as part of the Double Header format within the series and follows the same race format used across the Lakeland Paws events.
