The Isle of Wight Challenge
Make your way along the island's spectacular southern cliffs, past the sailing hub of Cowes. Take in stunning sea views as you encounter the iconic chalk Needles, rising out of the sea near Alum Bay.
The Full 106km event can be done as a continuous challenge or over 2 days, with the option to camp at your halfway point. If you're not ready to take on 106km, challenge yourself to 25km, 52km or 54km routes, while following an unforgettable coastal path.
"The toughest and most life affirming walk of my life which will provide memories me and my walking partner will never forget!"

Charity fundraising ideas
We're here to help you with your fundraising. Every year people just like you raise hundreds, or even thousands, of pounds.
Here's our handy guide to how you might get your fundraising started (and have fun at the same time!):
- A film night - £100
Whether it's a retro-classic or so bad it's good, get a space, some popcorn and invite people to a cosy film night. Ask them to pay what they would in a cinema. - Dinner party - £150
Wine and dine your friends and family by inviting them to your home for a dinner party. Ask them to pay what they would in a restaurant. - Have a clear out - £150
Having a big sort out is great during any time of the year. Sell your unwanted clothes and accessories online to rack up the cash.
