Can you crack the Fulda Challenge?

The selected UK team will face tough competition from nine other teams representing Italy, The Netherlands, Austria, USA, Canada, Germany and Poland. The teams, made up of one man and one woman, will drive in a convoy of Toyota Rav4s and are forced to combat harsh winter driving conditions.

During the challenge each team will travel north to Dawson City, battling temperatures as low as -50°C. From there they will continue up the Dempster Highway to Eagle Plains and the Arctic Circle.

Daily challenges include a range of Yukon activities, including ice climbing, snowshoeing, cross country skiing, car pulling, ski-doo racing, mountain running and event a half marathon to the Arctic Circle, just to name a few.
