About the Event

Discover the exhilaration of spring in the Lake District at the Lakeland Trails in Staveley on 2nd May 2026, where panoramic fell views and a legendary "Sting in the Trail" await. Choose from four uniquely spirited events: the 5k Sport Trail, the classic 10k Trail Run, or the half marathon distance offered in both a scenic Challenge and a competitive Race format, each weaving through private farmland, ancient woodland, and past idyllic tarns above the Kentmere Valley. More than a run, this day is a full festival of trail running, featuring live music, vibrant commentary, and a famously friendly atmosphere that celebrates every finisher. Starting from Staveley Recreation Ground, you’ll tackle variable terrain fully supported by waymarking and encouraging marshals, culminating in a rewarding descent back to the buzzing event village. Secure one of the limited Earlybird entries for this 2026 celebration and experience the perfect blend of challenging beauty and communal joy that defines a true Lakeland adventure.
