GWT Trailwalker Challenge

GWT Trailwalker Challenge

Friday, 19 September 2025 to Sunday, 21 September 2025

Queen Elizabeth Country Park to Brighton Racecourse, UK

Follow event Run/Walk Road/Path/Park Team Multi Day / Stage Race

The Gurkha Welfare Trust's Trailwalker Challenge from 19 to 21 September 2025 involves teams of 4 taking on a 100km journey in under 30 hours across the South Downs Way.

Trailwalker is the ultimate in long-distance challenges, raising vital funds for the GWT. Setting off from the Queen Elizabeth Country Park on Saturday morning, you'll find a checkpoint roughly every 10km along the route, where you can fill up your water, get first aid, and meet your support crew to grab some food or change kit. At Checkpoint seven you'll get a hot meal to keep you going through the night.

The trail ends at Brighton Racecourse, where you'll receive a hero's welcome, your medal, and a delicious Nepalese Gurkha curry.

Teams from the Gurkha Regiments lead the charge, but thousands of competitors take part from all age groups and levels of experience.
