       past Portland Bill, past nature reserves and the onto the western end of the unique
       Chesil Beach to West Bay’s famous cliffs (of TV’s Broadchurch fame) - before a welcome
       finish line celebration in the vibrant town of Bridport. You’ll get full support and great
       hospitality all the way - leaving you to focus on this epic Challenge!

       that’s special for you if you want to. We’ll be with you every step of the way - from kit advice, optional
       training walks, to moral support and great hospitality on the day.
