Lake District Ultra Challenge

6-7 June 2026

Event details

The Lake District Ultra Challenge offers incredible routes through the beautiful forest and countryside of England's biggest national park. There's a distance to suit everyone, with options ranging all the way from 10km up to the full 100km. You can run as an individual, or bring friends and family to run as a team!

Starting out from Kendal, you'll take on challenging hills and the Garburn Pass before trekking through the historic town of Ambleside on your way to Lake Windemere. Whatever distance you take on, you'll experience stunning views of one of England's most beautiful regions. 

You'll be well-supported with snacks, drinks, and hot meals along the way, as well as medical and welfare support. They'll keep you fit and fuelled all the way to the finish line, where a well-deserved glass of fizz awaits!

  • We'll send you a free Parkinson's UK breathable running top. 
  • You'll have access to expert training and fundraising advice.
  • We'll send you a welcome pack and fundraising materials.
