Charlesworth Chase

The Charlesworth Chase takes place on 16 May 2026 and starts from outside the Craven Arms in Appletreewick, North Yorkshire (BD23 6DA). The course is a 5.2 mile fell route with approximately 1200 ft of ascent, running to Simons Seat and back to the start.

The route leaves the road, crosses a field and follows a track toward the nearby river. Runners follow the river to Howgill, then climb a forest road, cutting a corner through trees before turning left off the track onto a rough path up to the fell. From that path there is a direct line to Simons Seat where competitors touch the trig before returning along the outward route.

Entry is restricted to seniors, over 18s. The entry fee is £10 and includes the race and a drink provided to be consumed at the finish line prior to the end of the race. The event description notes a map is available for the course.

The description focuses on the route and practical details about eligibility and included items. Contact details and records are not included here. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
