Tour of Pendle Fell Race
The Tour of Pendle is an AL Fell Race based at Barley Village Hall. The course is 27 km / 16.8 miles with 1473 m / 4833 ft of ascent. The event is registered and licensed through the FRA and is organised in accordance with FRA rules and requirements.
Experience and navigational skills are required and local knowledge is an advantage. Competitors must carry waterproof whole body cover with taped seams and an integrated attached hood, a hat, gloves, a map of the route, a compass, a whistle and emergency food. GPS devices are not permitted.
Cut-offs at CP4 and CP6 will be enforced; CP6 is the memorial cairn at the wall corner above Ashendean Clough. Anyone arriving at CP4 or CP6 after it has closed will be directed back to Barley Village Hall and must inform a marshal and hand in their race number. The organiser notes that runners unlikely to complete the full course within five hours in normal November conditions may not meet the CP6 cut-off.
Entries open 1 July 2026 and close 31 October 2026. Entry fee is listed as £16, with an entry-on-the-day fee of £25 if places remain. Minimum age for the event is 18 years. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
