Lakeland Paws: Tour de Whinlatter

Tour de Whinlatter is a trail running event in Whinlatter forest that visits quieter parts of the woodlands around Whinlatter Top. The routes follow wide forest tracks with no technical ground, though there are some undulating or "lumpy" sections. The event is chip timed, will be marked on the ground, and GPX files are available.

Two distances are offered:

  • 9 km, 380 m ascent
  • 12 km, 500 m ascent

Both routes mainly cover the same ground, with the shorter option described as slightly easier. Runners may take part with or without dogs; dogs must run on a suitable harness. Kit to borrow is available from Non-Stop Dog Wear for those who need it.

The event is part of the Lakeland Paws series and is listed as one of nine events in the series. Entry details include a minimum age of 16 on the event date and an entry fee of £20. Entry open and close dates are published for the event, and the organiser provides terms, cancellation and refund information. The event location is in Whinlatter forest near the coordinate area given for the event site. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
