A new ‘Coast to Coast’ Challenge for 2021 – across England’s South
West Peninsular. It’s 102km from Minehead in Somerset on the south
bank of the Bristol Channel, down to seaside Dawlish on the southern
coast of Devon, with some ups & downs of Exmoor and the meandering
Exe Valley in between.
Take on the Challenge at your pace – Walk, Jog, or Run it – and you’ll get full support all
the way with marquee rest stops, free food & drink, and a huge welcome & celebration at the
finish fine after an amazing journey. With half and ‘quarter’ distance options also – there’s a South
West Challenge for all!
