The Lowther Lakeland Fell & Trail Run is a 13 Mile race starting and finishing at Lowther Castle near Penrith, Cumbria. Organised by volunteers under Fell Runners Association rules, the event raises money for Eden Valley Hospice.

The fully marked course crosses Askham Fell and the Lowther Valley, with approximately 1,400ft of ascent. From Lowther Castle, runners climb through Askham village towards Heughscar Hill before heading across the fell and descending through Heltondale. The route includes a crossing of the River Lowther and a climb onto Knipe Scar before returning north through Lowther Park to the castle.

Around three miles of the course are on tarmac, with the remainder using grassy and gravel tracks, open country and approximately two miles of rough pasture. This varied terrain and the extensive Lakeland scenery give the race its distinctive fell and trail character.
