The Dales Dash is a 6-mile trail race taking place in the Peak District National Park, starting and finishing in the picturesque village of Great Longstone. The route follows the historic Monsal Trail through its old railway tunnels and across the iconic Monsal Viaduct, before winding through Monsal and Cressbrook Dales, with a mixture of flowing trails, woodland, open farmland and some challenging climbs. A scenic and varied route with plenty of spectacular Peak District views along the way.
The race is self-guided, and runners will receive written instructions to follow on the day. There are no GPX files to follow, and no marshals on the route. You are responsible for your own safety. You will be timed out at the start and back in at the finish.

The race starts and finishes in Great Longstone Village Hall. Runners may choose their own start time.
