Pooley Bridge Trail Runs

Pooley Bridge Wild Trail Runs

The event takes place in the village of Pooley Bridge at the northern tip of Ullswater. It is based at Waterside Farm / Waterside Campsite, which provides lake and mountain views and direct access to the course.

Two trail distances are offered:

• Half Marathon: 13.1 miles (21.1 km)
• 10km Trail Run: 6.2 miles (10 km)

Route maps are available to view and download. Routes are subject to change and the final courses will be emailed a few days before the event.

The event is cani-cross friendly. Participants may run with one well controlled dog; dogs must wear an appropriate harness and remain on a lead at all times.

Live Chip Timing is used, provided by Timing Up North, so results are recorded electronically. All finishers receive a bespoke finisher’s medal, event merchandise, and a snack. A custom event t-shirt is offered as an optional extra for £12.

Parking is available on site for £5. Further access and parking details are provided in the pre-race information pack. A donation option is available at registration; the event supports Patterdale Mountain Rescue, a volunteer mountain rescue service operating in the Ullswater area.
