Course, checkpoints and requirements

The stated start location is Nidd Gorge Car Park, Ripley Road, Knaresborough, HG5 9H. Registration is at Pannal Village Hall. GPX files and a route description are provided; final instructions will be emailed to competitors. Routes will be taped or flagged but tape may be moved, so it should not be the sole navigation aid.

Checkpoints are listed for each distance and provide water, coke, energy bars, crisps and boxes of vegan and gluten free snacks. All ultramarathon entrants receive a tracker; trail-race runners may hire a tracker for £15. The tracker includes an emergency button which, if pressed while in range, ends the runner’s race. A mandatory kit list applies to all distances and random kit checks may be carried out; missing kit can lead to disqualification. Every finisher is recorded as receiving a medal and an event T-shirt unless they opt out. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
