Rudding ParkRace 2026

Rudding Park, Harrogate   £34.00 - £36.00

A 10.5K Trail Race Amongst the Parkland of Rudding Park, Harrogate

Following the sell-out success of the 2025 event, we are excited to confirm the 10K Rudding ParkRace returns on Tuesday 19 May 2026, considered by many as ‘The best 10K with the best goody bag in the UK!’ This year’s Rudding ParkRace will support our 2026 Charity of the Year, Mind in Harrogate, a community-based service for those who need support with their mental health and wellbeing. The course is a single marked loop of around 10.5km with a mixture of paths, woodland trails and includes some technical areas. From the starting line, you will run down to the lakes where you will follow the stone wall into the woodland and be prepared to climb it on the opposite side! From the top, you will then drop down two fields to Crimple Beck, following the trail for a few kilometres until you reach the 5km mark and water station. You will then climb, via the secret golf hole, Love Island, Enchanted Woodland Path and the Italy Boot Shape to Repton Green. Follow the nature path to Dower House where you will be able to see the finish line in front of Rudding House but don't be deceived, still ahead the ‘finish drag’, described every year as a ‘brutal’ challenge! Soak in the applause of the spectators as you cross the finish line, the DJ will be playing on the balcony of Rudding House as you receive your much talked about goody bag and enjoy a well-earned drink, hog roast & ice cream. Prize giving will be at approximately 8.30pm with overall male/female, age categories & team winners, as well as the spot prizes on the night. Due to the nature of the course and start time, there is a cut off at 1 hour 45 minutes to complete the course.
