What is Castle to Castle?

Our annual Castle 2 Castle running challenge is back on Sunday 20th September 2026, and we need you now more than ever. With 1 in 2 of us being affected by cancer, the community of patients that rely on your support is growing.

Anybody comfortable with running (or walking) a length of 11 miles can take part in Castle 2 Castle 2026 – a stunning and iconic route through South Wales's Taff Trail from Caerphilly Castle all the way to Cardiff city centre. We ask runners to raise £50.

So, get your running shoes on, get training, and join us for this truly magical run.

And the best part: 100% of the money you raise will be invested in the cancer services and support provided here in Wales through Velindre Cancer Charity. With each mile, you will be providing hope for a population of 1.7 million people.

Together, we will achieve Victory Over Cancer.
