Edale MRT 9 Edges
The Nine Edges Event is a 20-mile off-road challenge held in the Peak District National Park, organized by the Edale Mountain Rescue Team. The route features approximately 900 meters of ascent, traversing high moorland and gritstone edges from Fairholmes to the Robin Hood pub near Birchen Edge. Participants can choose to run, walk, or climb the course, which includes checkpoints offering water and snacks.
The event fosters a supportive atmosphere with opportunities to meet rescue team members and supporters. Finishers enjoy a complimentary drink at the Robin Hood Inn and bus transport back to Fairholmes. The event supports mountain rescue fundraising and is backed by the Fell Running Association.
