North Yorks Ultra Challenge

June 20 - June 21

Take on the North Yorks Challenge and enjoy stunning coastal sights as you fundraise for Winston’s Wish!

A basecamp in Scarborough and a stunning coastal and moorland challenge, which you can take it on at your pace as a walk, jog, or run – and fundraise for Winston’s Wish!

The route heads around the town and then north on the Cleveland Way, with a stunning coastline up through Robin Hood Bay and onwards to Whitby, and a welcome halfway 50km stop. For full 100km challengers, it’s along the Esk Valley before heading south into classic moorland scenery, and back to Scarborough basecamp. Sign up as an individual or as a team; you’ll get full support all the way, plenty of food and drink, optional camping and transfers, a special medal, T shirt and celebration finish. With 50km, 25km & 10-mile options also available – there’s a challenge for everyone! Push yourself further in 2026, take on an Ultra Challenge – the UK’s No.1 Series of treks & trail challenges!

Winston’s Wish and Child Bereavement UK are merging to strengthen the support available for bereaved children, young people, parents and families across the UK. In the coming weeks, Winston’s Wish will change its name to Child Bereavement UK. By taking on the North Yorks Ultra Challenge you will still be raising money to support grieving children, young people and families, but the charity you will be fundraising for will be called Child Bereavement UK.
