Course and logistics

The course is hilly and mostly single track, with a very steep initial ascent and several technical descents, including sections through mining hushes. After the main climb the route returns into Reeth following Arkle Beck and passes through the Heggs-Castle renaturing area. The route is fully marked with orange tape, pin flags and coloured arrow signs; critical turns and road crossings will be manned by marshals. A GPX file and PDF map are available for download.

Parking is provided in a working field just outside Reeth and may be muddy. Registration is based at Low Fremington Village Hall and toilets will be available there and in the start field. Aid provision includes a primarily water stop with some food items, plus post-race hot and cold drinks and cakes provided by a local group. Temperatures can fall below zero in late March and mandatory kit checks will be used.

Mandatory kit includes taped-seam waterproof jacket and trousers, a hat or buff, gloves and an emergency blanket or bivvy bag. Suggested items include a map, compass and whistle. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
