North Yorks Ultra Challenge®

Rise to the challenge of this stunning coastal and moorland challenge

20-21 June 2026

Distance: 100km, 50km, 25km or 10 miles

Price: Starting from £15

Three people with walking sticks walking along a footpath through some woods.

A basecamp in Scarborough and a stunning coastal and moorland challenge, which you can take it on at your pace as a walk, jog, or run – and fundraise to support our life-saving work.

The route heads around the town and then north on the Cleveland Way, with a stunning coastline up through Robin Hood Bay and onwards to Whitby, and a welcome halfway 50km stop. For full 100km challengers, it’s along the Esk Valley before heading south into classic moorland scenery, and back to Scarborough basecamp.

Sign up as an individual or as a team - you’ll get full support all the way, plenty of food and drink, optional camping and transfers, a special medal, t-shirt and celebration finish. With 50km, 25km and 10-mile options also available – there’s a challenge for everyone. Push yourself further in 2026, take on an Ultra Challenge – the UK’s No.1 Series of treks and trail challenges!
