Jurassic Coast Ultra Challenge
The Jurassic Coast Ultra Challenge takes place on 15-16 May 2027 along the Jurassic Coast in Dorset. The event offers multiple supported trail and trek options and can be completed by walking, jogging, or running.
Distances and route options include:
- 100 km full challenge
- ~59 km route
- ~25 km route
- Weymouth Marathon loop
- Bridport 10K and Weymouth 10 mile options
The route starts at Corfe Castle, passes Swanage, Lulworth Cove and Durdle Door, reaches Weymouth at the halfway point, and for the full 100 km continues past Portland Bill, Chesil Beach and on to West Bay before finishing in Bridport. There are shorter route options and a Weymouth Marathon loop.
Support infrastructure includes covered rest stops approximately every 12.5 km with major stops about every 25 km, marquee cover, catering, seating and changing areas, medical teams, podiatrists and massage services. The route is signed with arrows and uses GPS tracking via a Challenge App; the timing system scans at rest stops and logs progress. Catering provides snacks every 12.5 km and meals every 25 km with dietary options. Camping packages and campsite facilities are available around the ~50 km point for two-day options. Shuttle buses, transfers and parking are provided at many locations. There are also Solo Start, Ultra March, and Trailblazerz options. Registration is open for the 2027 event.
