Wolf Pack League

One of you said it in the pub on Sunday: “I felt human again”.

That’s the whole point of Wolf Pack.

35 miles of Welsh weather, stinky tofu and good humour. Congratulations to every team that made it from Swansea city centre to the wind battered tip of Worm’s Head. You earned every mile.

A big thanks to our wonderful volunteer crew, , and for making it all possible.

Tomorrow at dawn, one hundred Wolf Packers depart Swansea on foot. Two days. Thirty miles. No phones. No GPS. No money. One team will return with the Golden Aubergine. The others may never be seen again.

London to Hastings. Two days. Thirty miles. No phones.

100 people boarded a coach at London Bridge with no idea where it was going. They sealed their phones for 48 hours. They navigated by map and aubergine. They matched plant tiles, lit fires from a spark, and ate the occasional cricket. They came out the other side at Rock-a-Nore Beach two days later, changed in small but real ways.

🥇 Poynt the Way - Season 2 champions.
🥈 Petezas and K8ke - close enough to taste it.
🥉 Donkey Roll - on the podium and not sorry about it.

Full league table on slide 2. Find your team. Tag your pack. Disputes to the complaints department (there isn't one).

To everyone who got on the coach on Saturday morning not quite sure what they'd signed up for: now you know. And you're one of us.

New dates dropping soon. London to Hastings (September) and Bristol to Wye Valley (October). Wolf Packers get first dibs.

“Why we use checkpoints instead of fixed routes.”

Wolf Pack routes aren’t A to B.

They’re not processional and they’re not about following a single line from start to finish. Instead, we set checkpoints. How teams get between them is up to them. The next checkpoint is only revealed once the previous one is reached.

This changes the experience in a few important ways.

First, it turns the journey into something you have to actively navigate. Route choice matters. Decision making matters. Sometimes there are optional detours that might save time, or might not. You have to judge it for yourselves.

Second, it brings back a sense of exploration. In a world where you can optimise almost everything in advance, not knowing exactly what’s coming next makes familiar landscapes feel adventurous again.

Third, it shifts the focus away from pure speed. It’s not just about fitness. It’s about thinking clearly when you’re tired, carrying a pack, and working as a team.

Some Wolf Pack races also include mystery drops, where teams are transported part way through the route and have to re orient themselves before continuing. Others don’t. The underlying principle is always the same.

The challenge unfolds gradually. The route reveals itself as you go.

We’re vague about the journey on purpose.
We’re not vague about safety, organisation, or support.

That balance is what turns a walk into an adventure.

“Couldn’t I just do this with my mates for free?”

Yes. And we actively encourage people to go on their own micro adventures.

What Wolf Pack offers isn’t a guided walk or a professional hike. It’s a deliberately designed experience. One that feels more adventurous, more immersive, and more connecting than just setting off on your own.

That’s why we cap numbers at around 100 so it feels like a tribe rather than a crowd. Why people move in small teams. Why there are no phones, no GPS, no money, and no pre revealed route. Those containers create uncertainty, exploration, and proper shared challenge.

There’s also something important about doing it alongside other teams, under the same rules, at the same time. It adds stakes, shared reference points, and a sense that this moment matters. Doing it with mates is great. Doing it within a designed challenge tends to be far more memorable.

Add to that simple analogue elements like a shared camp and low key music, and it stops feeling like a walk and starts feeling like an adventure.

It’s tough, but you’re supported throughout. Enough structure to feel safe. Enough freedom to feel alive.

Some people prefer to plan everything themselves. That’s great.
Wolf Pack is for people who want the adventure designed, not sanitised.

We’re quietly looking for one person to help co-build Wolf Pack behind the scenes.

Paid, part-time ops + community role, Bristol-based.
10 hours a week · £15/hr.

It’s not a typical job — more of a practical, meaningful role helping run and grow our outdoor events.

We’ll hire when we find the right person — and if it’s not you, feel free to tag or share with someone who’d love it.

Birmingham → Wye Valley.
30 miles. Two days. No phones.

Woodland paths. River valleys.
Maps instead of screens.
Teams instead of algorithms.

This is a survival race, not a walk.
And you won’t know where you’re going until you’re already on your way.

We’re opening the season with the London to Hastings Survival Race.

Wolf Pack is a survival race for modern humans who still hope to escape turning into a robot.

Think pilgrimage meets adventure race.
Duke of Edinburgh for adults in a perpetual existential crisis.

Bear Grylls meets Alan from The Hangover, with a touch of Wes Anderson.

A proper challenge, minus the macho — and with a bit of analogue beauty.

2 days. 30 miles on foot.
One night camping.
No phones. No GPS. No money. No turning back.
