Swaledale Marathon
The Swaledale Marathon is an annual fell run and challenge walk through Swaledale. The event on 13 June 2026 follows a 24 mile route and is organised by Swaledale Outdoor Club, which has run the event since 1979. The listed venue is Fremington Sunday School in Reeth DL11 6AR.
Competitors must navigate the route themselves and complete the course within 10 hours. The minimum age to take part is 14 on the day of the event; participants aged 14 to 17 must be accompanied by an adult for the entire route. No dogs are allowed on the course.
An entry fee of £30 is recorded for the event. The route and the event rules are published by Swaledale Outdoor Club. After deducting event costs and any charitable donations, income from the marathon supports the running of Swaledale Outdoor Club, a non-profit organisation.
The description of the event identifies it as both a run and a challenge walk, emphasising self-navigation and a fixed completion time rather than a marked or supported race format. Additional event terms including cancellation and disclaimer information are noted as part of the event administration. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
