The Kent Downs 50 Challenge is set in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty offering dramatic views, vibrant communities, a rich historic heritage, and diverse wildlife and habitats – it is home to part of the North Downs Way National Trail and other popular walking routes.
This new event is comprised of a looped 50km route starting and finishing at the Kent Showground, Detling with participants walking up to 50km on public footpaths, rights of way, roads, and pavements.
Participants can choose to do shorter routes including a 25km Loop or a 10km Loop Challenge. With easy access by car or train – 50 km, 25 km, and 10km distance options, and a Kent Showground basecamp with optional camping packages – there’s a fantastic new challenge waiting for you!
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.
