Final Immunity Challenge

The Final Immunity Challenge is a key individual immunity challenge in Survivor. It is the last challenge of the season, and guarantees the winner a seat at the Final Tribal Council. It also gives the winner an advantage in selecting their rivals for the Final Tribal Council. This is particularly true of seasons featuring a Final Two, as the challenge winner was the only person to cast a vote at the Final Three.

The challenge type has varied throughout the series' run, but is typically an endurance challenge, requiring the contestants to literally outlast the competition.
