Take on the South West Coast 50 and join more than 1,000 Challengers on a spectacular yet challenging route along the South West Coast Path and into Exmoor National Park. Walk, jog, or run across 50km, 25km, & 10km distance options. Head out from basecamp by the impressive Dunster Castle, along the sandy coastline of Minehead and into Exmoor. The full 50km route has magnificent views over the coastline and even all the way to Wales, with more than 1,500m of climb across the journey. Enjoy the charming village of Porlock before a rewarding climb up Dunkery Beacon to another breath-taking view.
