What to Expect:

Your adventure begins on the iconic Monsal Trail, a gentle and scenic path following the tranquil River Derwent, with the majestic Chatsworth House standing proudly in the distance. As you continue, the route meanders through rolling countryside, guiding you past the charming village of Edensor, where sweeping panoramic views open up before you.

A gentle descent leads to a final, rewarding climb into the peaceful Manners Wood, where you’ll be immersed in nature before the final stretch brings you back to a triumphant finish at Bakewell Showground.

Whether you're embracing the challenge of the Half Marathon, enjoying the 15K, or opting for the scenic 9.5K, this event is the perfect opportunity to explore the Peak District at your own pace, taking in breathtaking views and reconnecting with nature.

By taking part, you’ll be supporting Sheffield Hospitals Charity, helping to fund vital projects that improve patient care across Sheffield’s NHS.

Prices to register for your place start at just £20 plus booking fee for the 9.5k distance up to £30 plus booking fee for the 21k. Grab your place now on the Run For Charity website.
