Cutoff
Terrain
Difficulty
A single 60km lap of trail and moorland starting and finishing at Derwent Reservoir. The route links Slaley Forest, Blanchland, the surrounding moors, Waskerley Way, Derwent Walk and Muggleswick. It is a running event rather than a walk, and entrants must be confident of finishing inside the event cut off time.

Other questions
No. The organisers state that the event is not intended for participants who plan to walk the full route. Entrants should expect to run the 60km within the event cut off time.
Every finisher receives an event medal, an event T shirt, and drinks and snacks at the finish.
A route map is already available in the event map section, and the final route details will be released before the event.
The route mixes woodland trails, open moorland, former railway paths and rural lanes, so expect varied ground rather than a single consistent surface.
