About this event
Brand new for 2027, the inaugural Shropshire Hills 50 Ultra Challenge will take Challengers on a stunning journey across one of the UK’s finest landscapes. Walk, jog, or run across 55km, 25km, and 10 mile routes, all whilst fundraising for charity and making a real difference.
Set out from basecamp and head across stunning hills, varied terrain, and past ancient forts & ruins on route. You’ll travel right to the Welsh border with stunning views into two different countries before returning to basecamp. Enjoy charming villages and historic market towns on route between challenging climbs and an incredible sense of achievement at your finish line.
Join as an individual or as a team and get ready to experience full support every step of the way. Regular Rest Stops packed with food & drink, hot meals, fully marked routes, massage & medical care, marshals on course and walking the route with you, and of course an unbeatable community. There are even camping & transfer options available so you can plan your whole weekend smoothly.
Join the UK’s #1 Series of treks & trail runs in 2027, and push yourself further with the Shropshire Hills 50 Ultra Challenge.
