Organiser's Description
This is a proper Winter fell race where conditions could vary from a clear Winter's day to a howling wind with sleet and snow. The route takes a direct path up to the summit of the magnificent Hedgehope, the second highest in the Cheviots. You’ll pass the rugged Cunyan Crags, fight through the bogs of Dunmoor and finally climb the rocks near the top to reach the summit. To finish things off you may well be dumped into the tropical River Breamish. All just to clean your shoes of course.
