Our fully inclusive Challenge package will give individuals and companies a chance to get involved with us as a charity, to support us in raising funds and to have an opportunity to test their own abilities in completing this demanding 50Km hike in-a-day.

​The majority of the walk will be on open moorland and conditions on Dartmoor can be extremely challenging with its infamous bogs, mist, hill fog and military live firing areas.

The hike is supervised by experienced guides and undertaken and completed as a group. Therefore you will be expected to have a good level of fitness in order to keep within the group.



The package includes:
  • 2 nights hotel & full English Breakfast - Twin rooms
  • Shuttle bus to and from the start and finishing points
  • Online live tracking of the groups progress on route
  • Fully qualified guides
  • Checkpoint/aid station at 20km mark (50km walk)
