Nothing beats a coastal path on fresh spring day!

The Isle of Wight Challenge route takes you along the spectacular southern cliffs, past the iconic Needles, and up to historic Cowes at the half way stop.

For Full Island challengers it’s on to historic Ventnor, and back to our welcome base camp in Chale after an epic 106km journey. You’ll see the island from all angles, tackling rugged cliffside pathways and rolling hills. It will test spirit & determination but is totally achievable with good preparation and the Ultra Challenge support. With 75km, 50km, 25km and 10km challenge options also available, plus a Cross-Island 30km - there's a challenge here for everyone – and you can join as an individual or as a team of friends / family

Your entry includes a range of free food & drink at regular rest stops, and support from medics, marshals and massage teams. As you cross the finish line, you’ll get a glass of fizz, t-shirt, and a special medal to celebrate your achievement.
