Registration fee: £15 - £110 depending on chosen option

Experience England’s finest countryside on this looped route through the Lake District National Park. Starting in Kendal, you’ll be treated to stunning views of Lake Windemere, forests and nature reserves and the beautiful scenery will help distract tired legs on those tougher hill climbs.
Choose between the full challenge across an epic 100km, or opt for the half or quarter distance. And with the option to walk, run or jog there’s a Lake District Challenge for everyone!
Organised by Action Challenge, who have over 20 years’ experience organising adventures worldwide, you’ll be in very safe hands.
Sign up now and raise vital funds to support blind and partially sighted people when they need it most.

How your fundraising helps
Every day, 250 people in the UK start to lose their sight. Many people won't get any practical or emotional support when they need it most. We want to change that.
It costs just £250 for someone with sight loss to attend an RNIB Living Well with Sight Loss course which help attendees increase independence, boost confidence and connect with others to share experiences.
Your fundraising will help ensure that no one faces sight loss alone.
