Tour of Pendle Fell Race
The Tour of Pendle is an AL Fell Race held at Barley Village Hall on 21 November 2026. The course covers 27 km with 1473 m of climb and is organised under FRA rules and licensing.
The event is explicitly an AL Fell Race and is not a long distance walk. Experience and navigational skills are required and local knowledge is an advantage. GPS use is not permitted.
Participants must carry waterproof whole body cover with taped seams and an attached hood, hat, gloves, a map of the route, compass, whistle and emergency food. Cut offs at CP4 and CP6 will be enforced: CP4 closes 1 hour 50 minutes after the start and CP6 closes 2 hours 45 minutes after the start. The organisers note that participants who cannot complete the full course within five hours in normal November conditions are unlikely to meet the CP6 cut off. Anyone arriving at CP4 or CP6 after closure will be directed back to Barley Village Hall and must inform a marshal and hand in their race number.
Entries open 1 July 2026 and close 31 October 2026. The minimum age is 18 or older. The standard entry fee is £16 and there is an entry on the day fee of £25 if places remain available. New race maps will be available from Pete Bland Sports from 01 July. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
