2027 Jurassic Coast Ultra Challenge

Take on the Jurassic Coast Ultra Challenge for PSPA

Join Team PSPA for an unforgettable weekend on one of Britain’s most spectacular coastlines.

Walk, jog or run along Dorset’s breathtaking Jurassic Coast, taking in dramatic cliffs, beautiful countryside and some of the South Coast’s most famous landmarks.

Whether you’re looking for an achievable first challenge, want to step up from a marathon or are ready to tackle the epic 100km Full Challenge, there’s a distance to suit you. With options ranging from 10km and 10 miles through to 25km, marathon distance, half and three-quarter challenges and the full 100km route, you can choose a challenge that’s right for you.

By taking part for PSPA, you’ll be helping us create a better future for everyone affected by Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP) and Corticobasal Degeneration (CBD).

About the challenge

Starting beneath the historic ruins of Corfe Castle, the full route showcases some of the very best scenery the Jurassic Coast has to offer.

The route heads towards Swanage before following the spectacular coastline through Lulworth Cove and past the iconic Durdle Door. Full Challenge participants continue through Weymouth and on past Portland, Chesil Beach and West Bay, before reaching the finish line in Bridport.

There are several challenges to choose from:

• Bridport 10K – a family-friendly 10km loop from Bridport, taking in West Bay Harbour and views of the spectacular West Bay cliffs.
• Weymouth 10 Mile – a scenic loop from Weymouth taking in beautiful countryside, Osmington White Horse and coastal views.
• 25km Quarter Challenge – starting at Corfe Castle and heading towards Swanage and the coast before looping back towards Corfe.
• 34km Quarter Challenge – a tougher option taking in some of the Jurassic Coast’s highlights, including Lulworth Cove and Durdle Door.
• 42km Weymouth Trail Marathon – a challenging looped marathon route starting and finishing in Weymouth.
• Half Challenge – choose from approximately 42km or 59km routes along different sections of the Jurassic Coast.
• 76km Three-Quarter Challenge – a fantastic step up for anyone who has previously completed a Half Challenge and is looking to go further.
• 100km Full Challenge – journey from Corfe Castle to Bridport, either continuously or across two days, with an optional overnight stop in Weymouth.

Whichever distance you choose, you’ll have plenty of support along the way, including fully signed routes, rest stops, food and drink, medical support and GPS tracking.

And when you cross that finish line, you’ll have a well-earned medal, finisher’s T-shirt and glass of fizz waiting for you!
