About this event
Take on the South West Coast 50 and join more than 1,000 Challengers on a spectacular yet challenging route along the South West Coast Path and into Exmoor National Park. Walk, jog, or run across 50km, 25km, & 10km distance options all whilst fundraising for charity and making a real difference.
Head out from basecamp by the impressive Dunster Castle, along the sandy coastline of Minehead and into Exmoor. The full 50km route has magnificent views over the coastline and even all the way to Wales, with more than 1,500m of climb across the journey. Enjoy the charming village of Porlock before a rewarding climb up Dunkery Beacon to another breath-taking view.
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 and drink, hot meals, fully marked routes, massage and medical care, marshals on course and walking the route with you, and of course an unbeatable community. There’s a range of camping options and transfers available for all Challengers so you can plan your whole weekend smoothly.
