MEALS AT RACE FINISH (& BREAKFAST, IF BOOKING PEAK CENTRE ACCOMMODATION OPTION):
Our tasty and wholesome race meals are based upon culinary experiences from the expeditions and journeys which inspired the beginning of Ranger Expeditions and Ranger Ultras Trail Running. A big part of our enjoyment is to share these specific recipes with you.
At the race finish, participants will have a hot vegetarian meal (optional meat topping). At breakfast, if booking Peak Centre accommodation, this will be a continental style breakfast. Our meals may not be suitable for participants who follow more restricted diets such as vegan or have specific requirements.
While the race kitchen is kept clean and tidy, we cannot guarantee that food is free from nuts, dairy, wheat, soy, shellfish or other allergens. If participants are in any doubt, we recommend bringing your own suitable food items.
ACCOMMODATION NOTE: Other accommodation is at Edale YHA, Edale Fieldhead Campsite and local bunkhouses. Plus, there are several Edale B&Bs, The Old Nags Head and Rambler Inns. Slightly further afield there are local B&Bs, Inns and a YHA in Castleton.
PARKING NOTE: There no participant parking at The Peak Centre. All parking is in Edale village public car park. The Peak Centre is less than 5 minutes walk from the public car park. Please do not park elsewhere in the village as this causes disruption or block residents driveways. We work in Edale all year and would like to remain on good terms with residents.
