London Summer Walk - Ultra Challenge

22 August 2026 | Woolwich Barracks

Get your walking shoes on and explore some of the Capital’s less known historic areas with a tour of the ‘gateway to London’ along the Thames’s eastern section – and fundraise for your favourite charity.

Starting alongside the grandeur of Woolwich Barracks (short walk from Elizabeth Line, DLR, & Overground) – there’s a marathon looped route, which heads into the heart of the Capital – alongside a 25km option taking in Greenwich, and a 10km option if you’re after something a bit shorter!

Routes steeped in history with iconic sights, a lively warm up, full support all the way, rest stops with snacks & drinks, and capped with a BBQ meal, bar & music at the finish, making for a wonderful active end of summer celebration!


• Walk • Marathon, 25km, 10km Options • Food & Drink • Medal & T Shirt
