North Coast 110 / Exmoor Coast 55 overview
This series of coastal ultra events follows the South West Coast Path along North Devon and the length of Exmoor. Routes are self-navigated and include GPS tracking. Multiple distances run on coastal trails, moorland and some tarmac sections, with transport available to some start locations.
- 110 miles North Coast 110 Mile Ultra (Hartland Quay to Barnstaple and beyond)
- 114 km North Coast 110 km Ultra (Barnstaple to Combe Martin then east)
- 65 km Hartland Coast Ultra (Hartland Quay to Barnstaple)
- 58 km Exmoor Coast Ultra (Combe Martin to Minehead)
- 38 km Exmoor Coast Challenge (Lynton to Minehead)
The 110 mile route includes nearly 6,000 m of elevation gain and about 12 hours of running in darkness. It starts with hilly coastal terrain around Hartland Quay and Hartland Point, passes Clovelly and Westward Ho, then follows flatter sections around the Torridge and Taw estuaries before reaching Barnstaple. Entry for the 110 mile event requires a previous 50 km finish.
The 114 km route runs from Barnstaple along the Taw estuary and the north coast through Braunton Burrows, Saunton Sands, Croyde, Woolacombe and Ilfracombe, reaching Combe Martin where it links to the Exmoor routes.
The Exmoor Coast Ultra traverses Exmoor National Park from Combe Martin to the official South West Coast Path marker at Minehead. Notable coastal features on this section include coastal woodland, Culbone Hill at 433 m and Great Hangman at 244 m.
ITRA points and UTMB index credits are assigned by distance. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
