Coast, Castles & Clifftops – Step Up for Young People with Cancer
Take on a stunning South West summer challenge starting from the historic town of Minehead, right at the beginning of the iconic 630-mile South West Coast Path – and help transform the lives of young people facing cancer.
With basecamp set beneath the towering Dunster Castle, this 50km looped route takes you high into Exmoor National Park, with rugged climbs, open moorland, and breath taking coastal views – boasting over 1,600m of elevation gain. Whether you walk, jog, or run, it’s your challenge, your pace.
Sign up solo or with friends – and choose your distance: the full 50km, a 25km, or a 10km option. Every step you take helps fund vital support for young people with cancer.
You’ll be fully supported from start to finish with regular rest stops, food & drink, medical and welfare support, optional camping & transfers, and a finisher’s medal, T-shirt, and celebration to mark your amazing achievement.
Push yourself further in 2026 – take on the South West Coast 50 Ultra Challenge and help change young lives.
