Route Options
The challenge starts from Corfe Castle, Wareham, Dorset UK on Saturday 18th May 2024
Join 3,000 adventurers of all experience levels & ages and Walk, Jog or Run the spectacular Jurassic Coast – a World Heritage Site. Choose from the full 100km challenge, 75km, a 50km half challenge, 34km, 25km, Jurassic Marathon (46km) or a 10km distance.
Starting from Corfe Castle, the route heads to Swanage, then along to Lulworth Cove, past Durdle Door, with ups and
downs all the way to the Weymouth halfway point.
There is a 25km (quarter) option – a looped route with a start at the main Corfe Castle base-camp – and a finish to the west nearby. The route heads south along the Purbeck Way to a rest stop in Swanage for refreshments and a sit down before heading along the coast and then looping back towards Corfe Castle and a finish in Church Knowle. You’ll be rewarded with a medal, glass of fizz, & a picnic lunch to celebrate your achievements.
For the 34km (2nd quarter) option join the ‘Classic Jurassic‘ Challenge for the real highlights (and a few climbs!). A Corfe Castle start and along the Purbeck Ridge down to Lulworth Cove, and on past the iconic Durdle Door (stopping for a picture or two), with some steep ups & downs en route. Then the last leg to Weymouth where a celebration, hot meal, glass of fizz, & medal await!
For 100km challengers – it’s past Portland Bill, nature reserves, along the western end of Chesil Beach to West Bay’s famous cliffs, before a finish line celebration in vibrant Bridport.
With full support and great hospitality all the way – there’s a challenge here for everyone!
Your entry includes free food and drink at regular rest stops, plus support including medics, marshals and massage. As you cross the finish line, you’ll get a glass of fizz, t-shirt, and a medal to commemorate your achievement.
