Run Bolton Abbey 2026
Run Bolton Abbey is a trail running event held on the Bolton Abbey Estate in North Yorkshire. The event offers a range of distances on hilly, single-lap routes that run around the abbey and through estate land. Routes were revised in 2022 so all races now circulate the abbey; the 10K route was made easier at that time.
Distances include:
- Half marathon (13.1 miles)
- 10 miles
- 10K
- 2.4 mile family fun run
The races use wave starts and the 10 mile and half marathon have strict cut offs. Each finisher receives a medal made from fallen trees within the Bolton Abbey Estate. The event is limited to 1,200 entrants and entry on the day is not available. Race headquarters are on the field opposite Cavendish Pavilions. Parking is included with entry and is free for the day.
Facilities at the event include water and toilets. There are no distance markers, no changing facilities, no showers, and no baggage storage. The event is not suitable for wheelchairs. All proceeds from the event go towards care provided by Sue Ryder. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
