About the event

This new Ultra Challenge for 2025 is set in the stunning Gower Peninsula – the UK’s first Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Famous for its golden beaches, limestone cliffs, wild moors, ridges, and woodlands. Our base camp is on the grounds of the historic Penrice Castle, with weekend camping options.

The 100 km challenge is a figure of 8 loop made up of west and east routes which take in the best of the Peninsula, revealing its history, and varied and unique landscape. It will test spirit and determination but is totally achievable with good preparation and the Ultra Challenge support!
