Take on England’s finest countryside at your own pace as a walk, jog or run – and fundraise for Dogs for Good!

Start at challenge basecamp in Kendal, before heading out on a 100km looped route with a few tough hills to Ambleside, a halfway point by Lake Windermere (with stunning views en route), and a huge welcome back at basecamp!

With different distance options available, join up to 2,000 adventurers on 6 – 7 June 2026. Sign up as an individual or as a team and get full support all the way, with plenty of food and drink, optional camping and transfers, a special medal and a t-shirt. Finish with a great sense of achievement and a celebration!
