Isle of Wight Ultra Challenge

Great challenges need great settings, and up to 2,000 adventurers will take on stunning coastal path – all out to push themselves further – and you can fundraise for the Fire Fighters Charity. It’s along the spectacular southern cliffs, past the iconic Needles, and up Cowes. For Full Island challengers it’s on to Ventnor, and back to our welcome basecamp in Chale after an epic 106km journey.
