Thousands of adventurers have taken on the Peak District Ultra Challenge® - part of the UK’s biggest and best series of treks and trail runs for a wide range of ages, fitness and experience levels which raises £10+ million a year for charities!
You’ll get full support all the way so you can set a new distance goal, conquer the Peak District and push yourself further for an important cause. If you’re up for a 100km charity challenge weekend this year, make it the Peak District Ultra Challenge®.
Do it at your own pace. The level of support enables you to go further. There are marquee rest stops, lots of food and drink, medical and massage teams, a fully signed route to guide you all the way and mid-way camping for a good night's rest.
A big finish-line celebration awaits with an amazing sense of achievement for you personally and also for your fundraising efforts.
You’ll be amazed how much you can raise on these tough challenges as friends and family will recognise and support your courageous endeavours - 100km is impressive! All fundraising goes directly to your charity via an online JustGiving page.
The series raises £10+ million a year for charities. Choose your charity, set up a JustGiving sponsorship page and make your 100K challenge count!

Whether you’re a walker and new to challenge events, an experienced trekker, a marathon enthusiast upping the distance, or a seasoned ultra runner after UTMB points – there’s an Ultra Challenge® for you! Walk, Jog, or Run at your pace, as an Individual or a Team, for a charity of your choice or just for you. There’s an Ultra March® option for ‘fast walkers’ – and a new ‘Solo Challenger’ start time to join up with others.
This Ultra Challenge® famously lays on the best support and hospitality available on any UK endurance-style event. This enables you to step up and confidently tackle an 'Ultra' distance, with the best chance of success - and to enjoy your challenge! Here's a summary:
The 2 Day Full 100km Challenge breaks down the route into two ‘halves’ of 52 km on Day 1 starting and finishing at the basecamp in Bakewell, and then 48km on Day 2. You’ll get to experience the route in daylight as well as the opportunity to get some rest and sleep overnight. Camp at the fully supported Basecamp in Bakewell on the Saturday night where there will be entertainment, hot food and more.
You need to create your fundraising page on JustGiving within 48 hours of registering for your challenge. Then you can start your fundraising by sharing your page online with your friends and family.
As long as you’re all fundraising for the same charity, you can create a team fundraising page on JustGiving. You will still have to reach the combined total fundraising amount as the target is per person, not per team.
Speak to your charity about any worries. They are the experts and will offer you support, materials and inspiration throughout.
Remember only 50% of the target has to be reached 3 weeks before the challenge meaning you’ve got time after the challenge to impress everyone with your achievement and keep on fundraising.
If you don’t reach the fundraising target, there are alternative options. You can always change to a self-funded place and still take part in the challenge.
Once you've got your charity place, your details will be passed to the charity and you will hear from them within 14 days.
