Starting in Scotland, finishing in Wales and taking in the best of what England has to offer this six day, six stage foot race
is truly the first multi stage Ultra event for which “Britain” means something.
The countryside is spectacular as can be seen from some of the snaps we took when designing the route.
We start at Robert the Bruce’s cave and work our way south to the foot of the Cumbria Mountains, two stages in the mountains (who will be the King or Queen) of them) before we take on the Dales for two stages and finally (via our magic bus) to Wales for the final stage and an epic finish in an epic setting. We have taken care to ensure that the routes through the mountains will take your breath away but with a strong focus on safety - we will be supported in this by the local professionals. Each of our race villages will be in sites where showers and loos are available as well as decent food. Although you will be carrying your kit we will replenish your drinks at each of our checkpoints and even provide some snacks, you carry only the food you choose to take.

The route through Ribble Valley and the Dales is stunning and we top all this off with the final leg to a castle in Wales (www.ruthincastle.co.uk) which is not only the venue for our finish but our celebration dinner |

We have taken very possible care to ensure that this is an enjoyable experience and you arrive at the start line in the best possible shape each day BUT this is a tough race, the equivalent of 6 marathons in six days, climbing to 5 peaks in two days and 3 legs of Ultra distance – no shortage of bragging rights will be earned here
Our goal is that you should remember this as an experience of a lifetime |
