Nav4 Ullswater Way & Challenge

Pooley Bridge, United Kingdom • 1 Nov 2025

Both routes start and finish at Parkin Memorial Hall and follow a clockwise direction around the lake, passing landmarks like The Cockpit, Howtown, and Hallin Fell. The event is non-competitive, welcoming runners and walkers alike, with support checkpoints offering food and drink. Participants must be prepared for variable weather and terrain, including rocky paths and narrow fell tracks. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
