Lakeland Paws: Whinlatter Tails

The event takes place on the south side of Whinlatter Forest and is part of Season 5 of the Lakeland Paws series. The courses mix forest roads and trails and are marked. The event is chip timed and GPX files will be sent to participants beforehand.

There are two route options:

  • 10k route with circa 400 m total elevation gain.
  • 5k route with circa 200 m total elevation gain.

Elevation is described as lumpy but spread across the course rather than concentrated in a single climb. Runners may participate with up to two dogs or run without a dog. The event is open to entrants aged 16 or older. Entry details include an entry fee of £20 and specified opening and closing dates for entries.

This event is one of nine events in the Lakeland Paws series for the season. The format uses individual starts for each athlete to allow space for dogs at the beginning of the course. The organiser provides marked routes and timing but does not state cut-off limits. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
