Alderman’s Ascent reaches it’s 5th Birthday this year and will be included in the Fell Runners Association 2021 English Championship Races. A fundraising race for Saddleworth Rangers Youth teams, CraggRunner are proud to help out on this great race.
8.5k race with over 400m of climbing
A classic fell race route. The route visits the iconic 'Pots and Pans' monument before heading out to Shaw Rocks (highest point) before turning back towards Alderman's Hill where the 'fun' begins. A long, technical downhill rewards runners to another long uphill battle to the shoulder of Alderman's Hill and then its a 'pleasant' run back to the finish.
