Lake District Challenge

Take part in the Lake District Challenge on 7-8 June 2025.

Walk, jog or run the Lake District Challenge and take on England's finest countryside at your pace. The Challenge Base Camp is in Kendal. From there it's a full challenge anticlockwise loop taking in a couple of tough hills to Ambleside, a half way point by Lake Windermere, forests, and nature reserves - with some stunning views en route.

With 100km, 50km, 25km and 10km challenge options also available - there's a challenge here for everyone – and you can join as an individual or as a team of friends / family.

For more information on this challenge, visit the Lake District Challenge website.
