Challenge yourself on the beautiful ultra-trail UTH50 or UTH100 trail run through the mountain passes, along jeep tracks, through boulder ravines and over spectacular sand dunes of Ras Al Khaimah. It is a tough challenge and requires training, but generous cut-off times (24hrs for 100k and 12hrs for 50k) allow most physically fit, determined and well-prepared runners to get to the finish.
Proudly announcing this race (100k) is a UTMB qualifying race (ITRA 4pts)
