Entries for the 2025-2026 Montane Trail Series and Petzl Night Runner Series are now fully open. We’ve got an EPIC list of events which will take us from Autumn 2025, right through to summer 2026!
Petzl Night Runner Delamere Forest, Saturday October 25th
Petzl Night Runner Delamere is an incredible 10k and half marathon taking place in pitch darkness. Based at Delamere Forest in Cheshire, it’s a Halloween themed night with a free children’s fun run included. The course takes place on good tracks and trails, but there’s a sting in the tail as you climb ‘Old Pale’… Join us at Delamere and come over to the dark side.
Montane Delamere Forest 10k and half marathon, Sunday January 11th
Montane Trail Delamere Forest takes place Sunday January 11th. You can choose either the half marathon or 10k, it’s a great mixture of forest roads and single track, but once again you’ll finish with Old Pale so save a little energy!
Petzl Night Runner Rivington, Saturday January 24th
Rivington Pike is Round 2 of the Petzl Night Runner Series. It’s a challenging route to Rivington Pike and beyond, with stunning views as a reward. It’s themed as ‘close encounters’ of the UFO kind… but keep your torch on the path ahead. Join us at Rivington and come over to the dark side.
Montane Grizedale Forest half and full marathon, Sunday February 1st
Round 2 of the Montane Trail Series is Grizedale Trail 13 & 26, taking place from Grizedale Forest Visitor Centre, near Hawkshead in the Lake District. The half marathon course is the first 13 miles of the marathon route and takes place on good forest tracks. The route is ‘undulating’ but you are rewarded with some great views of Coniston and surrounding areas. Grizedale Visitor Centre is the finish for the half marathon, but the full marathon distance runners will continue to complete an Eastern loop towards Windermere. The terrain is varied, with some road sections, but it’s certainly not flat. The event always fills in advance and is a fantastic way to start the year!
Montane Howgills half and full marathon, Sunday April 12th
The Montane Trail 13 & 26 Howgills is one of our most popular routes and it’s round 3 of the Montane Trail Series. The Howgills are a great place to run and the picturesque village of Sedbergh provides us with a fantastic start and finish point. You can choose either the half or full marathon distance, either option is an EPIC day out on the trails!
Montane Ullswater Way 10, 20 miles & 55K, Sunday May 31st
The Montane Trail 10, 20 & 55k Ullswater Way starts and finishes at Jenkins Field in Glenridding. The Trail 20 route follows the stunning Ullswater Way, which is a complete lap of Ullswater. The Trail 10 starts from Pooley Bridge (we’ll transport you there from Race HQ at Glenridding) and runs the final 10 miles of the route back to Glenridding.
