Join the Lake District Challenge for charity and take on England's finest countryside at your own pace
Take on England’s most iconic National Park with this stunning Ultra Challenge offering distances from 10km up to the full 100km. Join more than 1,500 Challengers walking, jogging, and running on spectacular Lake District trails all whilst fundraising for your favourite charity.
Set out from basecamp in Kendal, over the Garburn Pass to the charming town of Ambleside. Relax and refresh at your 50km point on the shores of Lake Windermere, before full 100km Challengers set out towards Newby Bridge and Cartmel, before heading back to their finish line in Kendal.
Tackle the challenge by yourself or as a team, choosing from a wide range of distances - there really is something for all abilities!
