North Yorks Ultra Challenge

Take on the North Yorks Ultra Challenge for Dogs for Good and explore one of the UK’s most striking and varied landscapes. Every kilometre you cover helps us bring more people and dogs together to make life possible.

Take on the North Yorks Ultra Challenge between 26 - 27 June 2027.

Starting and finishing in Scarborough, take on this stunning coastal and moorland challenge at your own pace. With different distance options available, you can walk, jog or run at your own pace – and fundraise for Dogs for Good.

From Scarborough town, the route heads north on the Cleveland Way and past Scarborough Castle and Robin Hood’s Bay, before reaching Whitby Abbey for a welcome halfway 50km stop. Full 100km challengers will continue along to the Esk Valley and head south before returning to Scarborough.

Sign up as an individual or as a team and get full support all the way, with plenty of food and drink, optional camping/accommodation and transfers, a special medal and a t-shirt. All routes are fully marked, and there'll be massage and medical care available and marshals walking the route with you. Finish with a great sense of achievement and a celebration!
