Description

The Yomp Mountain Challenge will take place on 12th to 14th June 2026.

The Yomp Mountain challenge is a three-day event celebrating all things running, walking and outdoors. This volunteer run event is entering it’s fortieth year and with the help of some great sponsors is offering more events than ever before.

The Yomp raises money for good causes and to date well over £100,000 has been donated to a variety of good causes.

The Yomp has its own distinct character and is a local legend in the event calendar. It does have its roads and tracks, but they are not the main element, which is the open, exposed fell.

Run, Walk, Jog - It's Your YOMP!
