Kielder Challenge Walk
EVENT FULLY BOOKED!
Test yourself on this 26 mile challenge walk, organised by Shepherds Walks, around the Lakeside Way. The Lakeside Way has become one of the finest long distance paths in the country as it circles the whole of Kielder Water, Northern Europe's largest man-made lake, within Kielder Water & Forest Park.
This event is taking place on Saturday 4 September 2010 and places are limited to a number of walkers and runners. We would like to invite you to participate in what will be an historic and unique event and everyone who completes the challenge will receive a limited edition T-shirt.
Entry fee applies. To book your place go to: www.kielderwalking.co.uk. This walk is part of the Footfest, see www.visitkielder.com/site/events for details.
