From the Bakewell basecamp, the full 100 km challenge heads out past Chatsworth House, and on through varied terrain on a figure of 8 route with a few testing climbs and some stunning views. As you cross the finish line, you’ll get a glass of fizz, a t-shirt, and a medal to commemorate your achievement.
