This event, run by Action Challenge, is a NEW end of season Ultra Challenge®– in the ‘Garden of England’. With basecamp near Maidstone, parking & weekend camping options anyone can take part. The main 50km looped route heads anticlockwise around the Kent Downs – starting on the North Downs Way to Blue Bell Hill, around picturesque Aylesford, and following the River Medway to Mote Park at halfway for a picnic. Along the Len Valley Walk to the majestic Leeds Castle, then the North Downs Way back to the showground finish line and celebration. It’s easily accessible; you’ll get full support; and with 25km & 10km options also available, there’s a Kent Downs Ultra Challenge® waiting for you!
Walk, Jog, or Run – as an Individual or a Team. The Kent Downs Ultra Challenge is fun, safe, and rewarding – with full support all the way, enabling you to push yourself further and then celebrate your achievements at the Maidstone basecamp.
