From setting out from our Cirencester basecamp, it’s not long before the first of the hills, and with 2250 metres of climb, the Full 100 km is a real Challenge! The views out to the west over the Severn Estuary are spectacular, and if you want to make the most of them there’s a 100 km 2 Day ‘Daylight’ option – with camping at halfway. With a new 3/4 option, Half & Quarter Challenges, the new Cirencester 10km – and a basecamp being with plenty of parking & accommodation – there’s a great weekend in the Cotswolds to look forward to!
Join us for the a full-on 100 km Challenge – setting out from Cirencester on the Saturday morning heading north into the rolling green hills of the Cotswolds. There is 2,250 m of ascent – with undulating climbs, which whilst testing your legs will reward you with some breath-taking views. Our continuous challenge will see you stopping every ~12 – 13 km for stops & refreshments, with a main half way stop in Wotton, before heading back towards Cirencester.

A perfect choice if you’ve done a Half Challenge before – and want to ‘up’ the distance without committing to a ‘Full’ option. The route is 3/4 of the Full Challenge – so starts at Painswick, takes in the fantastic 2nd 1/4 Challenge route to Wotton, and then on through the Cotswolds to the finish line at Cirencester basecamp (the 2nd 1/2 of the Full Challenge) after a tough 76 km. Do it as a ‘Continuous’ challenge – OR rest overnight after the 1st 33 km & camp at our Wotton basecamp (or hotel/ B&B) – and do the remaining 47 km (2nd half) on Sunday morning.
