Lakeland Paws: Dogs @ Dodd Double Header

Keswick, United Kingdom • 9 May 2026

Lakeland Paws: Dogs @ Dodd Double Header takes place at Dodd Wood, offering a fully marked canicross course with views across Bassenthwaite Lake to the Northern Fells. The first event in the finale weekend of the 4th Lakeland Paws series features two routes: an 8K loop (370m ascent) and a 5K option (210m ascent). Courses run on forest roads and trails, mostly wide enough for two dogs per runner, though some narrower sections and a steep final descent require a steady pace. The event is chip-timed and marked, with GPX files available; harnesses can be borrowed, and runners may compete without dogs. This is a double-header with Sunday’s Whinlatter event.
