Eight Stations Ultra

Whitby, United Kingdom • 12 Jul 2026

Eight Stations Ultra is a 30-mile trail ultramarathon organized by The Charm Bracelet Marathon. The course runs from Whitby to Pickering, following the Esk Valley line before linking with the North Yorkshire Moors railway, visiting eight railway stations along the way. The route includes 3,322 feet of elevation, and features mud, rocks, and dense woodland, making it suitable for both runners and walkers.

Much of the path runs beside the railway, with occasional steam train sightings. It’s a partially self-navigational route with maps and GPX, four marshaled checkpoints, and a 13-hour cut-off. Finisher medals, T-shirts, water, snacks, and optional tree-planting are included.

For 2026, full tracking is offered via Open Tracking. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
