Lakeland Paws: Whinlatter Double Header

This event is the final fixture of Lakeland Paws Season 5 and the second race in a double header weekend, with season prize giving taking place at the end of the event. It is held at Whinlatter and uses the original route to the summit of Seat How.

There are two fully marked trail options. The longer route is an 8K loop that reaches the summit of Seat How and then follows forest roads and trails back to the visitors centre; it includes about 360 m of ascent. The shorter route avoids Seat How and joins the return section of the longer course; it covers about 5K with roughly 240 m of ascent. Organisers state there are no cut-offs and participants may walk sections if needed.

Sections of the summit route are narrower and steeper; on that course only one dog per runner is permitted and dogs must be run on a suitable harness. Harnesses are available to borrow from Non Stop Dog Wear. Runners may take part without dogs.

The event is chip timed and will be marked. GPX files are available to download. Entry fee is £20 and minimum age for entry is 16. Entries close 24 April 2027. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
