An excellent experience from start to finish. The route was brilliantly
marked out, the food was gorgeous and plentiful, the staff couldn’t have been
more helpful and supportive if they tried, a wonderful event that I can’t
praise highly enough.
An amazing event, extremely well organised with fantastic, enthusiastic staff. So much support, food, drink and tonnes of
information available if you ever had any questions. I’ve done lots of different races and this ranks as one of the best. It was tough but
so worth it...a little bit sad it’s over.
Our newest Ultra Challenge is based in the Nidderedale AONB, on the south east edge of the Yorkshire Dales.
The full 100 km route is a figure of 8, out & back from our base-camp in
Pateley Bridge, where there’s a range of camping & hospitality options. The
famous Nidderdale Way passes the Brimham Rocks, Ripley Castle, and Gouthwaite
Reservoir – providing a fantastic challenge backdrop!
