The Full Challenge

This is the full round the island walk which is approximately 42miles. There are 9 checkpoints situated along the route, three of which will be food and bag stops. This walk starts and finishes at St Aubin’s Harbour (the car park outside the Parish Hall) at 2am.

The Full Challenge Relay

This is the full round the island walk but done as a relay! Just get a team of walkers together, split the distance between yourselves and complete the challenge as a team. This walk starts and finishes at St Aubin’s Harbour (the car park outside the Parish Hall) at 2am.

The 20 Mile Challenge

This is a 20 mile walk which will run alongside our fellow round the island walkers. You will join them at St Catherine’s and walk with them to Grosnez along the North Coast. There are 3 checkpoints along the route, one of which is a food and bag stop. This walk starts at 6am.

The 10 Mile Challenge

This is a 10 mile family walk which will run alongside fellow round the island walkers. You will join them at Grosnez and follow the same walk route as them until you reach the finish line at St Aubin’s Harbour. There is one checkpoint along the route which is a food and bag stop. This walk starts at the far more friendlier time of 2pm.
