The route for 2014 is now confirmed. The checkpoint in Hope has moved compared to previous years, and is now near the bottom of Fullwood Stile Lane. The first drinks station will be at this control: the route between Win Hill and this control requires runners to go to the top of Hope Brink and then descend directly to the fell gate on the track.
A map of this new section, and downloadable maps of the whole course are available on the Skyline route page, along with a map showing the route back from Mam Nick to Edale which you should follow if you retire at that checkpoint. It may also be used in the event that we need to use the bad weather course.
