Lake District Running Festival: OMM LITE Adventure Race
Saturday, 30 May 2026 to Sunday, 31 May 2026 (Date TBC)
Grasmere, Ambleside, Cumbria, UK
The Lake District Running Festival's OMM LITE Adventure Race is held around the fells surrounding Grasmere in the Lake District from 30 to 31 May 2026.
Solo entrants or teams of 2-3 are given a map of the Grasmere trail network at the start line with 30 checkpoints marked. The challenge is to choose a route that visits the most checkpoints & then return to the event centre in the time allowed.
You can choose one or two days (you’ll return to Grasmere for day one and then head out to collect more points on day 2). There is a short course and a long course option on each day.
The Lake District Running Festival also includes the Grasmere Gallop events over the same weekend. It's a very friendly weekend with camping, retail, talks, workshops, bar and catering on site.
