Peak Raid - Eastern Moors and Burbage Valley

Peak Raid Race 3 Eastern Moors

Peak Raid Race 3 is a three hour fell running score event held on the Eastern Moors and Burbage Valley in the Peak District. The event requires route choice and navigation skills; competitors receive a waterproof map, a control description and a points value sheet at the start and then have three hours to visit as many controls as possible. Points are lost for lateness.

The series comprises four three hour races and uses SiTiming in a score format so competitors select their own route. Entrants can compete solo or as pairs. Age category is determined by age on 31/12/2026; for pairs the category is based on the age of the oldest runner. A Parent or Guardian & Under 18 category is available where the junior is at least 14 and the accompanying adult is over 21 and is the parent, guardian or an appointed accompanying adult.

Competitors must carry the FRA Mandatory Minimum Kit: waterproof whole body cover with taped seams and attached hood, hat, gloves, map, compass, whistle, emergency food and a survival bag. All competitors will have their kit checked. Prizes are awarded to 1st, 2nd and 3rd in each category; entrants must complete at least two races to be eligible and if a category has six or fewer entries only 1st prize will be awarded.

Dogs are not permitted due to landowner conditions, FRA recommendations and potential risks to wildlife, livestock and other competitors. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
