100 Challenge
Program Registration:
Register for the program with the Registration Form and pay £2.00. This program began Jan. 1, 2004 and will be ongoing with no time limit. An optional patch award may be purchased when you complete the program for £10.00.
Trail Registration:
To walk a permanent trail it is often necessary to register by post and then a route description and/or maps will be issued. After completing the trail, IVV stamps can be obtained by post either by sending your IVV Record Cards to the organiser or by asking him to send your IVV stamp on a BWF Insert Card. A minority of trails can be entered at the start and IVV stamps can be obtained at the finish, or have their directions online.
