Aside from having other trekkers around to help, all our checkpoints are staffed by health professionals. If you have any medical issues during the trek, contact the checkpoint staff. They should be able to help with most health issues.

Ticks can be a problem in the Lake District National Park. Although small, ticks can carry pathogenic bacteria. If left undetected, this can lead to diseases that can be dangerous (Lymes disease or borreliosis). So please check yourself – and your trekking partner – for ticks on a daily basis during Fjällräven Classic UK. Ticks like warmer, sweatier areas of the body, such as the elbow hollows, armpits, groin and back of the knees. If you see a tick, you should remove it with fine-tipped tweezers and wash the area with warm soapy water.
