Komoot UK Hiking Rally – Pennine Way Edition

You’re invited to join the very first komoot Hiking Rally, which will be taking place in the Peak District National Park between Friday 20th and Sunday 22nd September 2024. We’ll be following the iconic Pennine Way from Edale to Marsden, soaking up the scenery, sharing adventure stories and enjoying the sense of community. There are 60 spaces available – some will be reserved for the underrepresented groups we're working alongside.

On Friday, we’ll gather from 5pm at Newfold Farm Campsite in Edale, pitch our tents and enjoy campfire talks. When Saturday dawns, we’ll strike the tents and head out onto the Pennine Way. A baggage transfer service will be available for those who don’t want to carry all their camping equipment. On the second night, we’ll stay at Crossgate Farm campsite by Tintwistle. On Sunday, the hike will end in lovely Marsden, where there’ll be a Finisher Party from 4pm onwards.

The route is fully accessible by public transport and we are encouraging people not to drive. If you do choose to arrive by car, you won't be able to park at Newfold Farm (Friday’s campsite) for the weekend, so please arrange alternative parking in Edale.

From Marsden, you can catch a train or bus to Sheffield or Manchester, giving you the ability to return to Edale until late Sunday evening.

Everyone is welcome and remember, this is not a race! We'll be hosting pre event webinars on navigation, packing for a multiday hike, and first aid. There'll also be opportunities to ask any questions and meet people that will be joining the event.
