Nr Maidstone, Kent | Saturday 10 October 2026
10km, 25km, and 50km distance options | walk, jog, or run
This autumn we’ll be heading to the Garden of Eden to take part in the Kent Downs 50 Ultra Challenge® to raise funds for Celia Hammond Animal Trust and we invite you to also step out and make a difference for stray, abandoned, and unwanted animals by joining us on Saturday 10 October 2026.

Join up to 2,000 adventurers and take on the challenge at your pace as a walk, jog, or run – and fundraise for Celia Hammond Animal Trust.
The 50km looped route heads anticlockwise on the North Downs Way to Blue Bell Hill – following the River Medway to Mote Park at halfway for a picnic – along the Len Valley Walk to the majestic Leeds Castle, and the North Downs Way back to the showground finish line.
You can sign up as an individual or as a team and you’ll get full support all the way including plenty of food and drink, optional camping and transfers, a special medal, t-shirt, and celebration finish. With 25km and 10km options also available, there’s a Kent Downs Ultra Challenge® waiting for you!
Will you join us?
