Ultra Tour of the Peak District
Length: 60 miles
The Ultra Tour of the Peak District (UTPD) is making a name for itself as one of the most gruelling and technically challenging ultramarathons in the UK. With 2772m of ascent, and navigation essential, the UTPD requires plenty of trail experience and training miles. The most famous climb on the route is the Parkin Clough/Win Hill climb from Yorkshire Bridge with a gradient of 32%. The past two years have seen a dropout rate of around 30% of the start line. Despite the severity of some of the route it is still one of the most beautiful long course in the UK.
