Altra 13 Valleys Ultra 2027

Altra 13 Valleys Ultra is a multi-distance trail event based in Keswick CA12, United Kingdom, that uses routes through the Lake District National Park. Distances run over fell and lakeside terrain with varying elevation profiles and on-course support.

The event offers GPX files and route notes, GPS tracking for participants, medical cover, fully stocked feed stations and an event village. Finishers receive a locally made slate coaster medal and a patch. Some routes are fully waymarked while the longer routes provide route notes for navigation. Certain distances require mandatory kit checks and attendance at an event briefing.

Entry and eligibility vary by distance. Participants must be aged 20 or over to enter the longer ultra distances, and 17 or over for the 22 km trail. The longest route requires a participant self-declaration confirming prior experience and preparedness for remote mountainous terrain and night navigation. Cut off times apply on each route and there are timed cut-offs along the courses.

A bus transfer service is available for some start locations for an additional fee. The organiser is Great Run.
