More Information
The Challenge begins on the rugged north coast of West Somerset, at historic Dunster Castle, navigates Exmoor with its wild scenic landscapes, crosses atmospheric Wimbleball Lake, then continues on through rolling farmland alongside the River Exe to finish on the sweeping South Devon beaches.
For three days you will travel entirely powered by your own energy. As part of a team you will compete in navigation tasks, hill trekking, on and off-road biking, flat water kayaking and orienteering. The aim is to reach the finish line on the coast at Exmouth where you will finish the Challenge with a quick sea swim. It’s not just your physical fitness that will be put to the test however; there are also a number of mystery challenges en-route that will earn you extra points.
This will test your physical fitness, mental strength and team skills – it will be unlike anything you have ever done and your sense of fulfillment will be incredible. Whether you want to be the first across the finish line, or to win the fundraising trophy, your own life and the lives of many disadvantaged young people in the UK could be changed forever.
