Mighty Hikes | Wye Valley

Teams

It's easy to create a team! 

Follow the steps to become a Team Captain when you register. Make sure you have a list of names and email addresses of your fellow team members. Once you have signed up, an email invite will be sent to your team members with a bespoke link for them to fill out their own registration form and join your team.

As Team Captain you will have the option to pay their registration fee, otherwise your team members can pay when they get their invite.

Every time a member of the team completes their registration, you’ll be sent a confirmation email. That way you can monitor who has or has not joined your team.

Supporters

Your family and friends can meet you at the finish event village to cheer you across the finish line. However, they will not be able to accompany or meet you at any of the pit stops.

Dogs

Unfortunately, no dogs can take part in a Mighty Hike with the exception of assistance dogs. This includes at any of the start and finish venues.

Energy

• The power at Mighty Hikes is provided by hybrid generators
• Energy-efficient LED bulbs are used to light the marquees

One of the best things about yesterday was the crowd as we came in at the end to step over the finish line. It made us so emotional to hear people we'd never even met whooping and clapping. The absolute BEST. Well done everyone! Charlene Dixon, hiker of the Wye Valley 2023
