Runners invited to take on scenic Nidderdale 10k race

Friday, 17 April 2026 10:05

The Run Nidderdale 10K is back next month.

Runners from across Yorkshire and beyond are set to take part in the Run Nidderdale 10K - a trail race through the stunning landscape of Nidderdale Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

Taking place on Saturday 23rd May at 10am, the event is organised by Nidderdale Fell & Trail, a Pateley Bridge-based running club.

Its return is set to build on the success of last year’s race and continues to grow in popularity within the trail running community.

The race will start and finish at Nidderdale Showground in Pateley Bridge, where runners and spectators can enjoy refreshments and soak up the atmosphere.

Caroline Ball, Race Director, said:

“We’re really excited to be hosting the event again this year.

“It’s a fantastic opportunity for runners to experience the beauty of Nidderdale whilst also supporting two charities that mean a lot to our club and the wider community.

“We’d love to see as many people as possible come along, whether that’s to take part or to support on the day.”

Around two-thirds of the race profits will be donated to two important charities: Upper Wharfedale Fell Rescue Association and Motor Neurone Disease (MND) Association.

The causes are closely connected to members of the club.

One member volunteers with Upper Wharfedale Fell Rescue, while another has a close personal connection to MND.

The remaining funds will be reinvested into the club to support training opportunities, community outreach, and social activities, helping to grow participation in running across Nidderdale and the surrounding areas.

The race is open to runners aged 16 and over of all abilities, particularly those looking to experience trail running in a friendly and welcoming environment.

Entries are now open, and places are expected to fill. For more information or to enter, visit: https://nidderdalefellandtrail.org/run-nidderdale/
