Introduction

The Wolds Rangers Way Ultra is a 50 km circular route, starting and finishing at the eco friendly Field House Camping & Coffee Barn near Tibthorpe. Enjoy free parking, great facilities and a medal to reward your finish. £4 of the entry fee goes towards supporting local charities.

The route largely follows the Wold Rangers Way route and you will discover those incredible dry valleys that the Wolds are renowned for. Enjoy stunning views from start to finish.

You’ll visit the picturesque villages of Huggate, Fridaythorpe, Thixendale, Fimber and Wetwang.

If you are looking at this event as a first time ultra, we’ve made the cut-off extra generous with 12 hours to complete, so that you don’t have to worry about time. Better still, you’ll finish in daylight. All the information can be found on our website.
