Set against the breathtaking backdrop of the Bakewell Showground, this trail running event offers three incredible routes: Half Marathon, 15K, and 9.5K, each showcasing the best of the Peak District's natural beauty.
The adventure begins on the iconic Monsal Trail, leading runners alongside the serene River Derwent, with the majestic Chatsworth House towering in the distance. As the route unfolds, you'll weave through rolling countryside, passing the picturesque village of Edensor, where stunning panoramic views open up before you.
A thrilling descent prepares you for the final challenge, a small but rewarding climb into the tranquil Manners Wood. From here, the home stretch builds anticipation, culminating in an exhilarating finish that tests your endurance and determination.
Whether you're taking on the Half Marathon for the ultimate challenge, pushing yourself on the 15K, or enjoying the scenic 9.5K route, this event promises an unforgettable experience for every trail runner.
