Calderdale Crawl
The Calderdale Crawl is a 24 mile walk or run on 1 August 2026, organised by Calderdale LDWA and based at Heath Rugby Union Football Club near Halifax. The event starts and finishes at the rugby club, which provides free on-site car parking.
The route follows footpaths that pass through woods, tracks and fields, with a short stretch alongside the River Calder and the canal. There is an indoor midway checkpoint at Ripponden and additional outdoor checkpoints. A route description and GPX file will be made available prior to the event. Participants are allowed 10 hours to complete the course. All finishers receive a certificate and a memento.
Refreshments are provided at the start, en route and a meal is served at the finish. To reduce waste and single-use plastic, participants are asked to bring their own mug for drinks. Dogs are welcome when under full control; note that dogs may not be allowed inside the rugby club and event terms include requirements related to dog liability insurance. Any young person under 18 must be accompanied by an appropriate adult, parent or guardian.
Entry fees are £14 for LDWA members and £19 for non-members. LDWA membership costs from £15 per year (Jan-Dec). Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
