Silverbacktrails - Lilla’s Revenge

Lilla’s Revenge is a 10-mile trail run on the North York Moors National Park. The route follows part of the Lykewake Walk and visits two historical sites: Lilla Howe, home to the 7th-century Lilla Cross, and Louven Howe, a possible Neolithic or Bronze Age burial site. The course offers views towards Whitby, Ravenscar, Scarborough Castle, the Wolds, Blakey Ridge, and the East Cleveland coast.

The event is limited to 50 participants, all of whom must be at least 18 years old. There is a time limit of 3 hours.

Required equipment includes:

• Waterproof jacket with taped seams (or Paramo).
• Hat and gloves.
• Spare thermal top or jacket.
• Emergency bivvy bag.
• At least 500 ml of fluid.
• At least 60 grams of food.
• Fully charged mobile phone.
• Working compass.
• OL 27 OS Map or Harvey’s Map of the North Yorkshire Moors.
• A cup for drinks.

While there will be some marshals and flags, participants are expected to navigate the course themselves. The route will be marked on a master map at registration. There is no aid during the run; participants must be self-sufficient. Water and snacks will be available at the finish.

Parking is available at the start location, a lay-by on the A171 at grid reference NZ 945002. There is a £1 charge per car, donated to the National Park.

Each finisher receives a bespoke medal. Dogs are allowed if kept on a short lead or harness; owners with dogs start five minutes after the main group.
