The Experience

Take on Tough Trails, your way. The Tough Trails Challenge Series by Action Challenge delivers fully supported, two‑day trail adventures in iconic destinations worldwide. Open to walkers, joggers, and runners – with a choice of distances. Each event offers spectacular scenery, excellent hospitality, and full support at every stage. Includes accommodation, meals, logistics, crew, and a celebration finish. 

Full or Half Marathon

It’s your choice. 

The Tough Trails Half Challenge is 2 half marathons over 2 days.

Or step up for the Tough Trails Full Challenge, tackle back to back 42km marathons over 2 days. 

Find your pace. Our support is geared up to handle leisurely walkers, seasoned trail runners, and all in between! The route is fully signed, our fully stocked rest stops will keep you going, and we have pace walkers & runners out on the course to team up with.

Focus on the trails, not on boiling up noodles for dinner. We include all transfers, accommodation, and delicious meals. Expect a fully signed route, well-stocked aid stations, and expert trail guides & UK medics.

For early birds, we have a limited number of “flight included” packages, giving you an all-inclusive challenge with everything taken care of. Otherwise, we provide guidance on booking your own flight and meeting our team before the challenge.

Remember the trails, not pitching a tent in the dark. We set up comfortable camps, with toilets, showers, medical tent, and communal areas. We mark the completion of the challenge, and our final night in camp, with a celebration dinner & party.

Most people sign up solo, but we welcome small groups and teams of friends, family or colleagues. You’ll be joining a group of likeminded adventurers ready to take on the trails!

Spectator packages mean family & friends can join you. Packages include all transfers & meals, plus activities while you’re out on the trails. It helps create an inclusive atmosphere where supporters share the experience and help create a memorable finish line atmosphere.
