Kent Downs 50 Ultra Challenge

A NEW end of season Ultra Challenge – in the ‘Garden of England’ – with a basecamp near Maidstone, parking & weekend camping options. The main 50km looped route heads anticlockwise around the Kent Downs – starting on the North Downs Way to Blue Bell Hill, around picturesque Aylesford, and following the River Medway to Mote Park at halfway for a picnic. Along the Len Valley Walk to the majestic Leeds Castle, then the North Downs Way back to the showground finish line and celebration. Choose from the full 50km loop route, a 25km ‘half challenge’ or a 10km Maidstone Loop. All with real variety and some wonderful scenery & views – and easily accessible from London – there’s a North Downs 50 Challenge for everyone!

Your entry includes a range of free food & drink at regular rest stops, and support from medics, marshals and massage teams. As you cross the finish line, you’ll get a glass of fizz, t-shirt, and a special medal to celebrate your achievement. As we are an ‘Official Charity Partner’ - sign up & commit to fundraise for us and you’ll get 25% OFF the standard charity place registration fee!

For full details of the event, and how to join, head to the Ultra Challenge website - where you can also sign up online - and then look forward to achieving something special in 2024.
