The Cracoe Fell Races are scheduled for Sunday 19 July 2026 in Cracoe in the Yorkshire Dales. The senior course covers 2.60 miles (4.20 km) with approximately 900 feet (274 metres) of climb.
The route begins with a gentle section through fields that includes a trailer and a wall to climb over. The middle section becomes rough underfoot with ditches and tussocks to negotiate, and the finishing section features a short steep climb to the pinnacle.
