South West Coast 50 Challenge

Ultra Challenge Series

The South West Coast is stunning and one of the most visited areas of the UK for good reason and this challenge will let you experience the raw beauty of the area.

Taking in the first Minehead section of the stunning & famous 630 mile Coastal Path, and with an extensive ‘basecamp’ in the shadows of the impressive Dunster Castle. Then the 50 km loop heads over Exmoor with ups & downs and some magnificent views with over 1600 metres of climb. You’ll get full support all the way to the finish, and with 10km and 25km options  – along with camping options & festival style hospitality at basecamp across the weekend – there’s a South West Coast Challenge for almost everyone!
