Whether you like to walk and fancy a new challenge in 2025, an experienced trekker or a marathon enthusiast upping the distance, the Isle of Wight Challenge is the ideal event for you and your friends! Better yet, grab your colleagues for the perfect team building event.
The event
Organised by Ultra Challenge, the Isle of Wight Challenge is a fantastic way to tick off the bucket list item of walking around the whole island with full support!
This challenge takes on a gorgeous route, it’s along the spectacular southern cliffs, past the iconic Needles, and up to historic Cowes. For Full Island challengers it’s on to historic Ventnor, and back to our welcome basecamp in Chale after an epic 106km journey. You’ll get full support & hospitality all the way, and with 3/4, 1/2, & 1/4 Island Challenges + the NEW & scenic ‘Southern 50 Loop ‘ & 10 mile ‘Cowes Medina Estuary’ options also available – there’s an Isle of Wight Challenge for everyone!
When signing up you can choose to do the:
- Full Island – 106km
- Half Island -53km
- The Southern 50 Loop
- 10 miles Cowes Medina Estuary
Meaning there’s a distance for every ability.
Logistics
You’ll get full support and hospitality, including all drinks, snacks and lunch with hospitality villages at every ~12.5 km with ‘major’ ones every ~25 km. They are much more than the shaky gazebo with water that you see on some events. There are marquee cover, large medical & welfare tents, catering services, seating areas for recovery, changing rooms, and a friendly welcome!
Why?
- Amazing views and atmosphere with hundreds of other walks and runners.
- Fully supported, with medical and hospitality.
- Great achievement with your friends, family or colleagues.
