The Caledonian Challenge
Since its inception in 1996 the Caledonian Challenge has become one of the biggest and longest running charity sports events on the calendar. Over 15,000 people have taken part and helped raise a staggering £12 million pounds for charity. And now it's your turn...
Team Charity Event
As part of a team, of between 4 and 6 people, you will walk 54 miles in 24 hours along the West Highland Way - one the iconic Scottish walks. You will be supported every step of the way by our fantastic volunteers, marshals and stewards as well as your own crack team of support crew which you will recruit prior to the event.
Walk in Stunning Scotland
Located only 2 hours from Edinburgh, Glasgow or Aberdeen. You'll start in Gairlochy and have regular stops at designated Checkpoints including Fort William and Glen Coe. It's the ‘Walk of Your Life' and you'll never forget the moment when you cross the finish line.
When you sign up to Caledonian Challenge you get to participate in one of the UK's greatest, most challenging, and most visually stunning team endurance events. You will experience majestic views of Ben Nevis, the magnificence of Glencoe and Buachaille Etive Mor and the legendary Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Park whilst travelling this iconic Scottish walk.
Walk for Charity
Not only will you have lasting memories but you will have made an enduring impact to local charities. Each participant on the Caledonian Challenge agrees to raise £400 for the Foundation Scotland (formerly Scottish Community Foundation). If you can do better than that, and many of our participants do, then any extra money you raise can be divided equally with a charity of your choice.
A Sense of Achievement
As well as enduring memories of your achievement, which will last a lifetime, you will take with you a sense of pride and accomplishment which is unparalleled - irrespective of how you fare on the course. The emotional and mental rewards to participating cannot be understated: it truly is the Walk of Your Life.
"Just want to say thank you for a fab weekend although my feet would describe the weekend differently. What a journey - emotionally, physically and mentally but well worth it for the sense of achievement and money raised. Can I just also say that the organisation was fantastic along with the support from yourselves. Still on a bit of a high but hey - why not?!?!?!?"
