Test your strength of mind traversing Pen y Fan and associated terrain before taking on Jacob's Ladder on the return leg. The Fan Dance is a 24-kilometre route march through the Brecon Beacons — the same ground used in UK Special Forces Selection.
The only organisation of its kind run and staffed by ex 22 SAS and other UK Special Forces. Our events are designed to give each participant an experience unrivalled by any other.
SIX WAYS TO TEST YOURSELF
The classic. Test your strength of mind traversing Pen y Fan and associated terrain before taking on Jacob's Ladder on the return leg. The route that started it all.
The Fan Dance with a twist — you will be given a 15-minute head start before the pack of 'Wolves' (DS) will be released and on your tail. Can you stay ahead?
Tackle the Fan Dance twice in one weekend. Join a select group who have conquered the challenge. Not for the faint-hearted — a true test of endurance.
Testing your senses as well as your endurance, take on the mighty Brecon Beacons in the dark. The same brutal route under the cover of night.
The ultimate weekend package — two Original Fan Dances plus the Dark Trail. Complete all three to earn the unique Trinity medal stack. Our most demanding format.
Complete both the 24km Fan Dance and the Dark Trail within 24 hours. Day and night on the same legendary route — a relentless test of will.
