Dark Skies Run - North Pennines Stargazing Festival

About

​​​​​​Discover the freedom of trail running at night, in the company of experienced runners, as we follow the route of the High Force and Bowlees Geotrail. From Low Force we will run the Pennine Way to High Force. After experiencing the atmosphere of this magical place, under the cover of darkness, we will cross fields back to the visitor centre for tea and cake.

This is a, guided, 5-mile (8km) trail run over uneven, rocky, muddy and slippery ground. Head torches, (trail) running shoes and full-body waterproofs will be required. No dogs allowed. Suitable for runners (adults, 18+) who are interested in trying trail running/night running in a guided group.

Note this is not a race – we will run together as a group (with a tail runner to make sure no one is left behind).
