North Yorks Ultra Challenge
The North Yorks Ultra Challenge takes place along the North Yorkshire coast and through the North York Moors. The event features a variety of distances and participant options, including walking, jogging, or running. Participants can enter as individuals or as part of a team.
The event follows a route that starts at the Scarborough basecamp. The course travels around the local beaches and north along the Cleveland Way, passing Robin Hood’s Bay and reaching Whitby. For those participating in the longest distance, the route heads inland through the Esk Valley and south into the moorland scenery of Moors Park Forest. The path then joins the Tabular Hills Walk to return to the Scarborough finish line.
Available distances include:
- 100 km
- 50 km
- 25 km
- Whitby 25 km
- 10 Mile
The organizers provide a fully signed route with pink arrows and glow-sticks for navigation at night. Support services include regular rest stops every 12.5 km featuring food, drinks, and medical teams. Major rest stops at various intervals offer covered infrastructure, seating, and changing rooms. Participants receive a medal and a finisher's t-shirt upon completion. Additional amenities such as camping packages at the basecamp, shuttle buses to nearby train stations, and baggage transfers are also available.
