Montane Trail 26

There are a few excellent reasons to take your time over this trailmarathon route: firstly, it begins in Grizedale Forest, between Coniston Water and Lake Windermere, which are two of the most beautiful places in the UK, so you might also want to take your phone for stunning pic after stunning pic. It’s also bloody hilly, as well as rocky and technical underfoot. Still, amazing fun and utterly captivating. Cumbria, February 4, trail26.com
