Winterings

Explore the captivating Winterings Route, a challenging 8.3 km circuit in the heart of Richmondshire, Yorkshire Dales. This picturesque run begins with a short paved section before a significant, steep ascent through farm fields. The terrain then eases as you approach Winterings, continuing with rolling climbs through vibrant pastures, offering stunning vistas of the Dale as you traverse the higher ground.

As a largely off-road adventure with a 246m ascent and a hilliness rating of 4/5, this route is ideal for intermediate to experienced runners seeking a substantial training run. The latter part features a rewarding descent to a scenic valley path, ultimately leading back to Gunnerside. It’s perfect for those looking to build strength, endurance, and enjoy the wild beauty of the Dales.
