A challenge event you can take on at your pace. The Brand New Gower Peninsula Challenge invites you to walk, jog or run a distance of your choice, along a signed route, with free food and drink at regular rest stops, plus support including medics, marshals and massage. Get the ‘Ultra Challenge’ support & hospitality all the way – helping you to push yourself further and achieve something really special for Young Lives vs Cancer.

This is a new Ultra Challenge for 2025, set in the stunning Gower Peninsula – the UK’s first Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and famous for its golden beaches, limestone cliffs, wild moors, ridges, and woodlands. Our basecamp is in the grounds of the historic Penrice Castle, with weekend camping options – and the 100km challenge is a figure of 8 route made up of west & east loops which take in the best of the Peninsula, its history, and its varied and unique landscape. It will test spirit & determination but is totally achievable with good preparation and the Ultra Challenge support! With 50km, marathon, 25km, and 10K challenge option as well, and a bar & entertainment at basecamp – this event will be the highlight the season!

For more information, including detailed route options, head to the Ultra Challenge Series website.
