The 40 routes in this guidebook offer some of the best trail
running, fell running and sky running routes in the Lake District
National Park, one of the world's great mountain running regions.
Each route has been carefully graded to indicate terrain and
difficulty so that the runner can select a route that suits their
ability or aspirations for the day. Routes range from 5 miles to 21
miles, and include classics such as the Helvellyn skyline, Langdale
Horseshoe, Borrowdale and Scafell Pike direct. Detailed route
descriptions and OS map extracts accompany each route, along with
key facts, including distance, ascent, descent, timings, maps,
transport and parking. There is a useful introduction explaining
the history of trail and fell running in the Lake District, along
with advice about the best bases for a trail running holiday,
equipment and adapting to running off road. There is a rich history
of mountain running in the UK, and for many the Lake District is
the spiritual home of fell running. Whether you want to follow the
course of some of the classic fell races, or explore some of the
quieter corners of the national park, the aim of this book is to
inspire you to enjoy this thrilling sport in one of its greatest
playgrounds.
