The route finishes on the trail opposite Hartington YHA before runners return to the event headquarters at Hartington Village Hall.
Long course runners must carry mandatory kit. Short course runners must wear kit appropriate for the terrain and conditions. Event administration follows UK Athletics rules and the event is licensed by the Trail Running Association. The organiser partners with the Peak District Foundation so entries help support nature regeneration and trail repair across the park.

Each entrant receives a complimentary goodie bag from the Hartington Cheese Shop containing a cheese, crackers and a 5 cl bottle of port. Participants must be 18 or older.
