Course Summary

Starting from the meadows north of the village of Muker, the course follows the valley known as Hartlakes north to Kisdon Force near the village of Keld. Here you cross the river by foot bridge before following the Coast to Coast route to Ravenseat where there is a water station. The route then crosses the moor, passing Robert’s Seat and Thomas Gill Hill to arrive at The Tan Hill Inn. At Tan Hill there will be an aid station.

From Tan Hill, the route follows the Pennine Way back to the water falls at Kisdon. Transferring back to the Coast to Coast route, the course passes by Crackpot Hall before climbing Swinner Gill to the final water station. A track takes you gently down Gunnerside Gill all the way to the village of Ivelet. Here the course rejoins the Pennine Way, along the banks of the River Swale and through the meadows before finishing near the Rampsholme footbridge.
