Lakes Traverse

Lakes Traverse® 2026 is a challenging 100km ultra running event across the Lake District National Park, following Wainwright's Coast to Coast route. Starting at St Bees Seafront on the west coast, the course traverses scenic and rugged terrain including Ennerdale, Borrowdale, Grasmere Common, Grisedale Tarn, Patterdale, Kidsty Pike, and Haweswater, finishing at Shap. This ultra offers a demanding yet beautiful experience, ideal for runners seeking a significant endurance challenge and a stepping stone toward the Northern Traverse.
