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 cover of darkness, we will cross fields back to the visitor centre for tea and cake in front of the fire.
