Moonlight Meander

Moonlight Meander is a night trail running event held from Swinsty & Fewston Reservoir Car Park in Otley, LS21 2NP. The route runs through woods in low light, and participants are encouraged to use head-torches or other lights.

There are two looped course options:

  • 3.3 mile looped course
  • 6.7 mile looped course

The course surface is described as good trail with undulating elevation. The route is marshalled and signed, and feed and drink stations are provided every 3 miles. Public toilets are available in the car park.

Parking is co-located with registration in a public pay and display area. Registration opens from 4pm and participants are advised to allow about one hour for parking, registration and use of the toilets. Finishers receive a bespoke medal and a selection of treats.

The event notes a night time atmosphere and running in the dark as a defining element. The organiser is Its Grim Up North Running and the location is identified as Swinsty & Fewston Reservoir Car Park, North Lane, Otley, LS21 2NP. Parking charges may apply.
