  • Fully-marked routes

  • Massage and medical care

  • Marshals on course and walking the route with you

Choose the challenge that’s right for you

  • 100K – Bakewell > Bakewell - at your pace, through the day and night if you’re walking. 

  • 2-day 100K ‘daylight’ - 100km over 2 days, with optional camping packages at Bakewell basecamp halfway, or book a hotel/B&B.

  • 73K – Ideal if you want to ‘up your distance’, without committing to a full 100km. Do the popular 25km loop, and then head out on the 2nd half of the main challenge.

  • 52K – A scenic and tough northern loop of the Peak District.

  • 48K – Just as picturesque and challenging, a southern loop of the Peak District.

  • 25K– Bakewell (basecamp) > Bakewell (basecamp)

  • 10 mile – Bakewell > Bakewell
