North Yorks Ultra Challenge

Take on one of the most stunning events in the Ultra Challenge calendar and walk, jog, or run across the Cleveland Way & North Yorkshire moors. Fundraise for The Christie Charity and make a real impact to a meaningful cause whilst achieving something truly incredible.

You'll set out from basecamp in Scarborough onto the Cleveland Way, past Scarborough Castle and charming Robin Hood’s Bay before reaching the 50km mark in the shadows of Whitby Abbey. For full 100K challengers, you’ll head back towards Scarborough along the Esk Valley and classic moorland scenery. The 10 mile and 25K loops start and finish in Whitby, one of the most dramatic finish lines in the entire Ultra Challenge calendar!
