 a 30km route for Explorer Scouts only. The event is a test of good orienteering skills as well as physical ability and team-work and unlike other well known hikes, local knowledge will not be of help as the route will not be disclosed until the day of the event. All teams therefore start with exactly the same chance of winning a trophy

It is this difference that has made the 'Southern 50 Challenge' a successful and rewarding event in the past and will continue to for many years.

Like any other long distance challenge, the effort required to last the full course and receive a finishing certificate is an achievement.

More importantly, many like to return to have another crack at the trophy or just to improve on their time. 

Whatever the reason, you will enjoy our challenge and, we are sure, find the event very rewarding.
