Lewis Burn Trail Run
The Lewis Burn Trail Run is a night trail race held in Kielder Forest on 24 January 2026. It is Race 4 of the Shadowlands Race Series and covers 10 km with 246 m of elevation.
The route uses forest tracks and mountain bike trails and follows the Lewis Burn mountain bike trail. The course is undulating with small, testing climbs. The route starts from Bakethin car park, runs parallel to the Lewis Burn to the far end of the course, then tackles the steep zig zags of Simons Tester before a long descent back to the finish. As the shortest event in the series, it is expected to be the fastest.
