About the race
The Baildon Boundary Way is a trail running event near Baildon, West Yorkshire, featuring two waymarked and marshalled routes that pass through woodland, moorland, canal and rolling countryside. The event uses a single-lap course profile described as undulating and is licensed under UK Athletics rules with a TRA permit pending.

Both routes have water stations and distance markers. Provisional GPX files will be made available on the race webpage. The 6.2-mile route begins with a punchy downhill, follows woodland, tarmac and trail sections, and returns uphill to the finish.
