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, unique landscape. With 75km, 50km, Marathon, 25km, and 10K challenge options, as well as a bar & entertainment at basecamp – this event will be the highlight of the season.
