Isle of Wight Ultra Challenge
Great challenges need great settings (and even greater people) – and few are better than the Island’s stunning coastal path. Join Team Macmillan this May, and push yourself further to support the 3 million people in the UK who are living with cancer. Ready to go the extra mile?
About the event
Great challenges need great settings - and none are better than the Island's coastal path. 2,000 adventurers of all experience levels will walk, jog, or run the Isle of Wight Challenge in 2024 - and go all out to push themselves further.
It's along the spectacular southern cliffs, past the iconic Needles and up to historic Cowes at the halfway stop. For Full Island challengers it's on to the cliffs of Ventnor, and back to our welcome Base Camp in Chale after an epic 106km journey.
You'll get full support & hospitality all the way, and with half & quarter Island options also - there's an Isle of Wight Challenge for everyone!
