Story

The Restart Alpine Challenge is the 'rugby' trek of a lifetime.

This year the team is taking on one of the worlds most iconic trails in the Mont Blanc massif alongside rugby legends Ed Jackson and Damian Hopley for an extraordinary challenge in aid of Restart.

The 4-day challenge will take you on a magnificent and challenging 80km trek through Italy across the French border. The challenge will begin in Courmayeur, Italy as you set off on a three-day trek, towards the Mont Blanc massif and travelling around half of the Mont Blanc massif before reaching Chamonix to complete the Restart Alpine Challenge 2019.

Together we aim to raise £30,000 for Restart's work supporting professional rugby players suffering from serious illness, injury or hardship. Restart is there to provide players and their families with financial, practical and emotional support during difficult times, including help with medical treatment, rehabilitation, counselling and career transition. The Alpine Challenge will raise vital funds to enable us to be there for players when they need us most.

Thank you for your support.
