Series 2

The wildly popular Celebrity Race Across the World is back. Four new famous faces will be embarking on an epic 12,500km race from the Amazon rainforest all the way to the Andes at ground level.

The race to Frutillar in southern Chile is underway. The four teams must leave the beach town of Canoa Quebrada and race through the north east region of Brazil to their second checkpoint, Lençóis, the gateway to the sprawling Chapada Diamantina National Park.

The teams race from the charming, cobblestoned town of Lençóis, Bahia, to the gigantic metropolis of São Paulo, via Salvador, Rio de Janeiro, Porto Seguro and Brasília.

The teams reach the halfway mark, and after sixteen days traversing the length of Brazil, it’s time to cross the border and enter the heart of South America and three new countries.

The teams will race from Tigre, on the banks of the Paraná River, high into the far north of Argentina and 2,500 metres above sea level, to the 10,000-year-old mountain town of Tilcara.

The race reaches its climax as one lucky team claims their title as champions of Celebrity Race Across the World.
