The Moors The Merrier

The Moors The Merrier is a festive 21-mile circular running and walking event held around the moors of Hebden Bridge, starting and finishing at Hebden Bridge Golf Club. The anti-clockwise route traverses Midgley Moor, Wadsworth Moor, Heptonstall Moor, and Erringden Moor, featuring a challenging final climb back to the venue. Participants enjoy panoramic views of the Calder valley and benefit from well-stocked checkpoints, including the famed Jumble Hole.

The event offers a warm, festive atmosphere with a Santa Hat and gift exchange tradition, hot meals, changing rooms with showers, and a clubhouse bar. Navigation skills are required as the route is unmarked but supported with GPS files and tracking. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
