Challenge yourself on the beautiful ultra-trail H30, UTH50 or UTH100 trail run through the mountain passes, along jeep tracks, through boulder ravines and over spectacular sand dunes of the UAE.
It is a tough challenge and requires training, but generous cut-off times (24hrs for 100k, 12hrs for 50k, 5.5hrs 30k) allow most physically fit, determined and well-prepared runners to get to the finish.
The course will take you on a multi-terrain adventure and take in approx 3300m of elevation over the 100km distance. Checkpoint 5 will be located at approximately 52km.
Make sure you are part of the only single-stage 50km and 100km trail run in the UAE!
