Isle of Wight Ultra Challenge

The Isle of Wight Ultra Challenge is a coastal-footpath event on the Isle of Wight, starting at Chale Basecamp. In 2026, it offers multiple distances: a full continuous 106 km around the island (clockwise), a 52–54 km two-day option, plus 82 km, 50 km Southern Loop, 25 km Quarter, and a Medina 10-mile route. The course tracks along the southern cliffs past the Needles to Cowes, Ventnor, and back to Chale, with scenic island scenery throughout.

Expect full support: clearly signed routes with GPS tracking, marquee rest stops every 12.5 km (major stops every 25 km), catering, medical/massage teams, camping, transfers, and a celebratory finish. New in 2026 are Ultra March and Ultra Trailblazerz options for walkers and fast runners. Up to 2,000 participants. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
