Shepherds Skyline Fell Race

The race is scheduled for 1 November 2025. It is a Category 'BS' fell race covering 10 km with approximately 350 m of ascent. Entry on the day is £5.00. The minimum age for competitors is 16 and there will be no junior races this year.

Course, kit and logistics

The course is described as fast and muddy, with a steep descent off Stoodley Pike followed by a stiff climb back up the hill. Race headquarters is The Shepherds Rest Inn, Lumbutts Road, Todmorden, OL14 6JJ (GR945232 on OS South Pennines Leisure Sheet 21). Early arrivals may use the pub car parks; other vehicles will be directed to park along the road by marshals. Do not park in coned-off gap areas, as these act as passing places on a bus route. Car-sharing is encouraged.

All competitors must carry the kit specified by the Race Organiser to meet FRA minimum requirements. This may include full waterproof body cover, hat, gloves, map, compass and whistle. There will be kit checks at the start and finish. Failure to carry the specified kit will result in disqualification and referral to the FRA. The organiser notes that competitors should assess conditions and consider additional kit if needed, and that those without suitable experience should not take part.
