The Malham Trail Half Marathon takes place on 5 September 2026 at Malham Show Field, BD23 4DA. It is the third race in the Due North Trail Trilogy and is run under UK Athletics rules with a TRA licence. The route passes Malham Cove and Malham Tarn, includes a climb to Weets Top followed by a long descent, and is partially way marked. A GPX route file is available.

Entry fees are listed as UKA member £35 and non UKA member £37. There is a series discount when entering all three races; entering all three saves £10 and qualifies a runner for the series championship. Minimum age for entry is 17.

The stated minimum kit includes a waterproof jacket, hat and gloves, a personal cup or bottle (no cups are provided at drinks stations), and a mobile phone with a location app installed. Drinks stations supply water and juice, and a post race meal is provided (for example pasta, pie and peas or soup).
