What is The Giant Walk?

The Giant Walk is a fully supported 42km lowland marathon from Hale in Merseyside to Hale in Cheshire. The route is largely flat with very little incline, making it an achievable yet meaningful endurance challenge.

The Route

It’s along a beautiful, flat waterside route with plenty of rest stops, expert leaders, and a support coach following you throughout the day. The walk is designed to be welcoming, inclusive, and confidence‑building, ideal for anyone who wants the achievement of marathon distance without the pressure of pace — all while fundraising for Moya Cole Hospice.

A coach will travel along the route so you can store belongings and access kit, food and water throughout the day. The coach has toilet facilities and will meet walkers at several points. It is also available to transport walkers from the finish back to the start for an additional charge.

For those looking for a shorter option, the 21km Stockton Half begins at the halfway point in Stockton on Heath and completes a half marathon distance in the afternoon. This entry level option is ideal for those new to endurance walking, and teenagers can join from this point.
