Yes. All distances must be completed within 10 hours to officially finish the challenge and earn your UltraTrax patch and medal (Level 3 and 4 only). This window is designed to push you, but still give walkers of all abilities enough time to complete the course safely.

Yes! We have aid stations located every 2-3 miles along the course with water, electrolytes and snacks. Toilets are also stationed at regular intervals.

Every UltraTrax course is assigned an UltraTrax Challenge Rating (UCR) to help participants understand the physical demands of the course before race day.

The UCR is based on an objective analysis of each 7-mile loop, including elevation gain, sustained steepness, major climbs, recovery opportunities, and other unique course characteristics. Every course is rated on a scale from 1 to 10, with 10 representing the ultimate UltraTrax challenge.

The UCR reflects the challenge of completing one 7-mile loop. Participants tackling 14, 21, or 28 miles should expect the physical demands to increase substantially with each additional loop.

The UCR isn't intended to tell you whether you can complete a course, it's designed to help you choose the event and level that best matches your current experience, fitness, and personal goals.

Whether you're looking for your first ultra walking adventure or your next big accomplishment, the UCR gives you a consistent way to compare every UltraTrax course.

Not at all. UltraTrax is built for all levels of athletic ability. You choose your distance and whether to level up with a weighted vest or ruck.

Yes- check our custom training plans HERE.

Wear clothing you’re comfortable sweating in. Light, breathable layers, moisture-wicking socks, and a hat or sun protection. Choose trail shoes or road shoes you’ve already tested on longer walks. If conditions are wet or muddy, trail shoes with grip are ideal.

UltraTrax is designed as a walking event, but you won’t be disqualified for running! We just ask that you follow appropriate trail etiquette and only pass when it’s safe and there’s plenty of room. If the trail narrows to single-track or feels crowded, we ask that you slow to a walk and stay in line until it opens up again.

Your safety comes first. If you need to stop, UltraTrax volunteers and staff will help guide you back to the base area or to the nearest aid station.

The route will be clearly marked with signage, arrows, bright tape, and volunteers will be stationed at key intersections and aid points.

We love dogs, but unfortunately they're not allowed at our events for insurance purposes.

Our events are rain or shine. We will only modify or cancel if dangerous weather / air conditions are present.

In the event of unsafe conditions, the in-person event will be canceled and shifted to a virtual event.

In this scenario, you will have two options:

1. Defer your entry and receive full credit toward any UltraTrax event over the following 12 month period.
2. Complete your trek virtually. Complete your mileage and email us a screen shot of your achievement. We'll mail your swag directly to your door. You will also receive 25% off a future UltraTrax event.

Because UltraTrax requires significant planning, staffing, and coordination with our resort / course partners, registrations are non-refundable. If you can no longer attend, you may defer your registration to any future UltraTrax event up to two years in the future for a small fee.

We’re here to help. Email us anytime at info@ultratraxgo.com and our team will get back to you quickly.
