Jurassic Coast Ultra Challenge : 16 and 17 May 2026

The Jurassic Coast Ultra Challenge is a multi-distance trek and trail event along the Dorset coastline, starting in Corfe Castle and finishing in Bridport. The route passes Swanage, Lulworth Cove and Durdle Door, reaches Weymouth at the midpoint, and for the full route continues past Portland Bill, Chesil Beach and West Bay.

The event offers a range of supported challenge options with on-route services and logistics designed for extended outdoor participation. Covered rest stops appear approximately every 12.5 km, with larger facilities every 25 km that include marquee cover, catering, seating, changing areas, medical and massage teams. The route is fully signed and supported with GPS tracking via the event App; a timing system records progress at rest stops. Transport options include shuttle buses, transfers and parking at key venues. Camping and half-way basecamp packages are available for multi-day or overnight options. Finishers receive a medal, a T-shirt and a finishers meal.

There are specific entry categories for different paces and goals, including a timed Ultra March category for walkers, and a Trailblazerz category aimed at faster, time-targeted runners. Multiple distance formats are offered to suit different plans, and participants may enter as individuals or as part of a team. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
