Whether you like to walk and fancy a new challenge in 2024, an experienced trekker or a marathon enthusiast upping the distance, the Jurassic Coast 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 Jurassic Coast Challenge is a 100km route along the spectacular World Heritage coastline. A start in Corfe Castle, the route heads down to Swanage, and along through Lulworth Cove, past Durdle Door, with ups and downs to Weymouth half way. For full 100 km challengers, it’s past Portland Bill, Chesil Beach, and on to West Bay (of TV’s Broadchurch) – before a finish line celebration in the vibrant town of Bridport.
When signing up you can choose to do the:
- 10km route
- 1/4 route (approx. 25km)
- 1/2 route (approx. 50km)
- 3/4 route (approx. 75km)
- Full route (100km)
Meaning there’s a distance for every ability.
Logistics
You’ll get full support and hospitality, including all drinks, snacks, lunch and hot dinner (for full route) 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!
You can also book a camp spot, if you’d like to do the 100km over two days.
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.
