Ultra Challenges
Unique ultra challenges along stunning coastlines, or through magnificent countryside – you’ll get full support, with rest stops, food & drink, medics, massage, camaraderie, charity fundraising, and an unforgettable weekend.
- Lake District Ultra Challenge: 6th-7th June 2026
- Cotswold Way: 13th-14th June 2026
- Peak District Ultra Challenge: 4th-5th July 2026
- Gower Peninsula Ultra Challenge: 18th-19th 2026

- Self Funding: Just like a standard holiday! You pay the initial registration deposit online, and then the final balance of the trip cost (+ any fuel surcharge imposed by the airline) – which is invoiced 12 weeks prior to departure.
- Charity Sponsorship: You pay the registration deposit online & fundraise at least twice the amount of the final trip cost balance. The MSA Trust pays the final balance from this fundraising, and 80% of your fundraising target needs to be us 12 weeks prior to departure (and all balances by 4 weeks after return). Any airline imposed fuel surcharge will be invoiced to you – 12 weeks prior.
- A mix of ‘Self Funding’ & ‘Charity Sponsorship’. You pay the registration deposit online and ‘split’ the final balance with your chosen charity. Your fundraising target is lower (compared to ‘Charity Sponsorship’) as you also pay a ‘final balance’ 12 weeks prior to departure.

International Challenges
An Action Challenge trip is more than a holiday – it’s an adventure with a group of like minded folk, which will test you in stunning landscapes. Whether it’s walking the Great Wall of China, a sunrise over Machu Picchu, summitting Africa’s highest mountain, or exploring the magical Bhutan – we’ve got a fantastic trek for you!
