Traverse the wild, ancient heart of Devon at the Dartmoor in a Day 50km Ultra & 30km Challenge, set for Saturday, 5th September 2026. This epic point-to-point journey guides you across the raw, open moorland from Okehampton to Ivybridge, passing iconic tors, river valleys, and the legendary Ryder's Hill. More than just a race, it's a fully-supported adventure where mobile Mountain Leaders assist with navigation between checkpoints at Postbridge and Combestone Tor, welcoming both runners and fast hikers. The 50km route demands respect for Dartmoor's rugged, pathless terrain, while the 30km challenge from Postbridge offers a more accessible yet equally stunning immersion into this unique landscape. With generous cut-offs and transport options, the focus is on personal achievement amidst breathtaking, untamed scenery, finishing with a well-earned memento at Ivybridge Community College. Entries open on 10th October 2025 for a truly authentic and unforgettable journey across one of England's last great wildernesses.
