Silva Moors Traverse

Ingleby Cross, United Kingdom • 29 Mar 2026

Event overview

The Moors Traverse® is scheduled for Sunday 29 March 2026. It is an ultra trail race of approximately 80 km following Wainwright’s coast to coast route from Ingleby Cross to Robin Hood’s Bay. The route runs along the northern edge of the North York Moors National Park and then through eastern Yorkshire to the shoreline finish. The event emphasises an ethos of self-sufficiency. The minimum age to enter is 18. The race contributes to the UTMB index (50K ranking) and is worth three ITRA points and two mountain points.

Route, support and requirements

The route is not marked but follows a well established national hiking trail. Organisers provide a waterproof paper map, a GPX file and a digital map via the Avenza app. Route distance varies between editions; the listed height gain is about 1600 m. Support Points are positioned along the course with food, hot and cold drinks, indoor or covered facilities and medical staff in attendance. Participants may only retire at Support Points. A finishers drop bag (maximum 5 kg) is transported from start to finish and is not accessible during the race. Mandatory kit is checked at registration; an official downloadable checklist lists required clothing and equipment. The event provides gluten-free and vegan meal options and aims to offer balanced, meat- and fish-free catering. Several external cafes and pubs are noted as additional food options on the route.
