Anglezarke Amble Challenge
The Anglezarke Amble is a Challenge Walk across Rivington, Anglezarke and Turton Moors in an area known locally as "Little Lake District". The event is scheduled for 13 February 2027 and is based at Rivington Village Hall, postcode BL6 7SE.
Walkers may choose between these distances:
- 17 miles
- 24 miles
Runners are permitted on the long route only. A time limit of 10 hours applies.
Entry fees are stated as £12 for LDWA members and £20 for non members. Fees include refreshments at checkpoints, food at the finish, and a certificate. When the event is full a waiting list will be used; being on the waiting list does not guarantee an invitation. Non registered participants are not permitted.
Entrants must carry specified equipment suitable for winter moorland conditions and for navigation, including a map, compass, whistle, torch, waterproofs, first aid kit, food, drink and a mug. Random equipment checks will be applied and failure to comply may lead to disqualification. No mug equals no drink at checkpoints.
Checkpoint procedures include handing in tallies if retiring and visiting all checkpoints in the correct order. Event numbers are allocated on arrival and route descriptions are available from headquarters or for download. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
