The first Belvior Challenge took place in 1990. The Belvoir Challenge starts in the village of Harby and follows a varied course, including footpaths, tracks, byways, and minor roads taking in the Belvoir Estate owned by Duke of Rutland.

The Belvoir races both have checkpoints every 5 miles with free drinks and snacks. These are well known for their homemade cakes.

Requires a good level of fitness.
PLEASE NOTE DOGS ARE NOT ALLOWED !

Please note: walks can be quite boggy (especially this time of year).Please bring suitable footwear and clothing.
We really encourage carpooling so that we can keep car numbers down both for the environment and the carparks. It's also a great to get to know some people.
Please make sure to bring:
• Sturdy, waterproof walking boots. It can get very muddy and slippy on these walks
•Waterproof clothing, it is England after all
•Warm/cold weather layers. Prepare for all weather
•Enough water for the duration of the walk
•Lunch and snacks as needed. There won't often be places to buy things en route
Etiquette - If you can no longer attend the event, please remember to cancel yours and / or your guests rsvp as we often have people on the waiting list and it means we won't wait around for you either
Please note that the organisers may not have walked these routes before, so bear with us whilst we navigate.
