The 5th Llangollen Round Challenge is scheduled for the weekend of May 31/June 1 2025, and entry will be open from November 1 - less than two weeks time.
Organiser Judy Smith said: "For those who don’t know, the Challenge is a hill hike of 35miles, to be taken over either one or two days.
"If you’re thinking about it, a very comprehensive account of the event will be on our website www.thellangollenround.info
"We’re looking forward to seeing the entries rolling in. Who will be first?"
The often gruelling run/walk through the beautiful yet tough terrain of the hills surrounding the town was launched in 2012 by members of the Llangollen Ramblers group and is based roughly on the Alpine Walk Tour of Mont Blanc.
The
amount raised for Cancer Research UK (CRUK) by the challenge has climbed
steadily to almost £120,000 which has been boosted by government returns
on charity donations.
In
recognition of this massive cash support for CRUK and the involvement and
commitment of around 100 volunteers who run the event the Round was selected
for the Flame of Hope Award last year.
These national awards are CRUK's annual accolades to celebrate the achievements of its most outstanding and inspiring volunteers.
