From the Windsor Racecourse base camp, 1,500 adventurers will head out on looped routes through the Great Park with fantastic views of Windsor Castle. Then it’s on to Runnymede and along the Thames Path, taking in some wonderful countryside. You’ll get full support all the way, a few post-Easter surprises, a celebration finish at base camp, and a BBQ meal. It’s a great way to kick off the 2025 Ultra Challenge season, and to get fitter and feel better. With 10km, 25km and 50km challenge options available, there's a challenge here for everyone. You can join as an individual or as a team of friends/family.

You may have to dig deep at times, you’ll meet new friends along the way, and the journey will be unforgettable! As you cross the finish line, you’ll get a big welcome from the cheer squad, a glass of fizz, t-shirt, and a special medal to celebrate your achievement.

Why should I take part in the walk for Cats Protection?


Two reasons, both are as important as each other.

  • firstly, to help cats and kittens in need across the country. Your generosity and kindness enables our teams to go on caring for abandoned and unwanted cats and kittens
  • secondly, for yourself! By taking part in this walk, it can be a fantastic and fun way to challenge yourself and mix up your day to day, get fit and raise vital donations for cats in need. We like to think of it as the good kind of nervous. You’re getting out of your comfort zone but you’ll be having so much fun doing it!
