Whether you’re taking on your first endurance challenge or looking for your next great adventure, The Forces March offers an experience unlike anything else. πŸ₯Ύ 125 miles of achievement πŸŒ„ Spectacular scenery every day 🀝 Incredible camaraderie πŸ’™ Supporting veterans in need πŸ… Memories that will stay with you for life This isn’t simply a walk. It’s an adventure with purpose. πŸ“… 28 April – 2 May 2027 πŸ“ Ilfracombe to Bulford 🌐 Register today: veteranscharity.org.uk/fm #TheForcesMarch #AdventureLikeNoOther #WalkingChallenge #AdventureWithPurpose #ChallengeYourself #Fundraising #SupportVeterans #NorthDevon #Teamwork #TheVeteransCharity

Everyone on The Forces March 2025 is doing an incredible job and day 2 is well under way. The March heads to Crowcombe at the foot of the Quantock Hills today. The weather is stunning but very warm so there is a challenging 23.3 miles to cover today. They are in excellent hands as our amazing team are keeping a watchful eye and close hand on all proceedings. Our newest recruit to the marshal team isn’t doing a baaaad job of keeping eyes on either. #thefm25

As part of our support for our amazing Veterans and Serving Military Personnel (Regular and Reserve), we provide a huge 50% discount on entry to The Forces March! Following in the footsteps of heroes of WW2, the 137-mile route of The Forces March begins in Ilfracombe and crosses Exmoor, the Quantocks, Somerset Levels and Salisbury Plain, finishing at Bulford Camp. The scenery is stunning, the challenge is epic and the camaraderie that develops amongst participants and the Ops Team is fabulous! Make 2025 the year you take on The Forces March. forcesmarch.org.uk
