A basecamp in idyllic Bakewell will welcome 3,000 adventurers who will test themselves in the fabulous Peak District National Park.
You can take it on at your pace as a walk, jog, or run for charity.
There’s a range of camping options and extensive hospitality and welfare services. Choose your distance, 50km, 25km or 100km. The full 100km Challenge takes a tough and varied figure of 8 route through Derbyshire’s finest scenery. Sign up as an individual or as a team.
