Shepherds Walks are organising on behalf of The Kielder Partnership, a 26 mile challenge walk around the recently opened multi-million pound Lakeside Way. 

The Lakeside Way has suddenly become one of the finest long distance paths in the country, as it circles the whole of Kielder Water, Northern Europe's largest man-made lake and England's largest forest park. This event is taking place on Saturday 4th September 2010 and places are limited to a number of walkers and runners.  We would like to invite you to participate in what will be an historic and unique event and everyone who completes the challenge will receive a limited edition T-shirt. 

 Please book early and you will receive an information pack through the post.

 

Feedback from the Kielder Challenge Walk 2009

Great Facility (Lakeside Way) and location.

Well organised and structured event.

I hadn't imagined that the surface (particularly the North Shore) would have been as good for running as it was, and certainly makes it more accessible to those with mobility issues.

Great running surface, with plenty of variety in terms of its undulating nature. Excellent trail marathon.

Just the right number of drinks stations, with excellent and very friendly and supportive people manning them.

Challenging but manageable event in stunning location.

Will definitely be back next year.
