Take on the Thames Path Ultra in 2026 and help change lives by fundraising for TOFS!
England’s most iconic river provides a stunning backdrop for an unforgettable adventure. Whether you walk, jog, or run, you can set your own pace and achieve something incredible while supporting our vital work.
The Challenge
Join over 3,000 adventurers starting at Putney Bridge. The full 100km Ultra Challenge heads upstream along the famous Thames Towpath to Henley-on-Thames.
You’ll journey through historic locations like Richmond, Hampton Court, Runnymede, and Windsor, taking in wonderful scenery before reaching a well-deserved riverside finish line.
Options for Everyone:
Don’t fancy the full 100km? There are also 50km, 25km, and a 10km route starting at Henley. There truly is a Thames Path Challenge for every ability!
Sign up as an individual or a team and you’ll receive full support all the way, including:
- Plenty of food and drink stops
- Optional camping and transfers
- A special medal and T-shirt at the celebration finish
Make Your Challenge Count
Push yourself further in 2026 and take on an Ultra Challenge—the UK’s No.1 Series of treks and trail challenges! By securing your place and choosing to fundraise for TOFS, you’ll be directly helping children and families affected by Oesophageal Atresia and Tracheo-Oesophageal Fistula.
