Nav4 Tour de Helvellyn

Nav4 Tour de Helvellyn is a classic winter ultra run around Helvellyn in the Lake District. The route starts and finishes at Askham Community Centre and covers about 38 miles with roughly 2,000 meters of ascent, mainly on mountain trails and bridleways that climb to around 600 meters several times. It’s an unmarked, high-challenge course requiring strong navigation and winter hill running skills, with a low-key atmosphere and minimal external support.

Entry is limited to experienced participants (roughly 200 starters). Special features include strict kit checks, finish tea and Joe’s Soup, and Open Tracking for safety and timing; campervans are welcome. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
