Anglezarke Amble Challenge

Anglezarke Amble Challenge is a West Lancashire LDWA event set in the West Pennine Moors around Rivington, Anglezarke and Turton, an area locals call the “Little Lake District.” The walk offers two distances for walkers: 16 miles (short) and 24 miles (long); runners may only tackle the long route. The route starts at Rivington Village Hall and passes Lever Park, Rivington Pike with its Armada beacon, Winter Hill, and Darwen Moors to Darwen Tower, then descends to Slipper Lowe, White Coppice, and along reservoirs linking Anglezarke, Yarrow and Upper Rivington back to the finish. There are refreshment checkpoints, mandatory kit, and a 10-hour time limit. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
