Cotswold Way Ultra Challenge 2025

The magical Cotswold Way Ultra Challenge provides a stunning setting for a testing challenge – with some fantastic views en route and tough hills in between!

A challenge event you can take on at your pace. The Cotswold Way Ultra 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 The Brain Tumour Charity.

The base-camp in Cirencester is the hub for a full challenge looped route through the heart of the Cotswolds, which provides a stunning setting for 2,000 adventurers to test themselves. There are rolling hills, villages, the scenic Cotswold Way, footpaths & trails, with some fabulous views en route. It will test your spirit & determination but is totally achievable with good preparation and the Ultra Challenge support.

Important information from the event organiser

All sponsorship goes directly to the Charity via your online fundraising page. At least 50% of the sponsorship target should be with the Charity 3 week prior to the Challenge. At this time, the Charity agrees to pay a fee for your place to the Organiser (similar to the Self Funding cost – or half of it for Mixed Funding as you’ve already covered half). Failure to meet the deadline may result in cancellation of your place by the charity. The remaining 50% and any extra, should be with your Charity by 4 weeks after the Challenge.

This event is organised by Action Challenge.
