The North Face Kendal Skyline Ultra: How To Follow The Race

This Saturday 22nd November, hundreds of Kendal Mountain Festival goers will take to the trails surrounding the historic town of Kendal for the second edition of the Kendal Skyline Ultra, sponsored by the North Face. The 50km route takes in the fells of Cunswick Scar, Benson Knott and The Helm, weaved together by scenic trails through Levens Deer Park and other local landmarks.

The race starts from the bustling Kendal Town Centre to the samba sounds of Drum Nation at 9am GMT. Here is how you can follow the participants along their way…
