Saddleworth Res's

Saddleworth Res’s, run by CraggRunner, is a true moorland trail challenge offering 5 Res’s, 10 Res’s, or 15 Res’s routes around Saddleworth Moor. Distances are 25 km (5 Res’s) with about 710 m of ascent; 44 km (10 Res’s) with around 1,314 m; and 60 km (15 Res’s) with about 1,876 m. The course visits local reservoirs and traverses a mix of paved paths, tracks, bogs and boulder fields, with navigation required as routes are not fully marked.

Based at Saddleworth Rangers Rugby Club in Greenfield, the event features Open Tracking timing, indoor checkpoints, a post-race meal, and the CraggRunner “tipple.” New for 2025 are the 5 Res’s and 15 Res’s. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
