About this event
The basecamp in Cirencester is the hub for a 100 km looped route through the heart of the Cotswolds, which provides a stunning setting for 2,000 adventurers to test themselves.
There are rolling hills, villages, the magical Cotswold Way, footpaths and trails, with some fabulous views en route - and a few tough hills in between!
You'll get full support and hospitality, including optional university-style accommodation at the basecamp, and with half and quarter distance challenges also - there's a Cotswold Way Challenge for everyone.
As the RSPCA is an official partner of this event, you can sign up to support us and receive a 25% discount on the 'Full Sponsorship' registration fee.
