About the race
Dodo Trail 2027 is a multi-distance trail running event across western Mauritius with routes that start near Le Morne, cross native forests and private estates, and finish at Riverland Mauritius in Tamarin. The programme includes several distinct races: - Le Morne Dash: a one-way uphill time trial on Le Morne Brabant covering 3.3 km with about 500 m elevation gain via the Slave Path. - Xtreme 50 km: a 50 km technical trail across southwestern trails, crossing nine private estates and one public property and summiting seven peaks. - Squad 50 km: a four-leg team relay covering the same course as the Xtreme 50 km, divided into four segments. - Trooper 25 km: a 25 km technical trail starting inside Black River Gorges National Park and crossing two named peaks. - Venture 10 km: a 10 km technical route that includes an ascent of La Tourelle Mountain with ocean and mountain views. - Rookie 5 km: a shorter trail through savanna-like forest on relatively flat terrain. Logistics include shuttles from Riverland Mauritius to the various start locations and limited parking at some starts. Participants receive an electronic-timed bib, finisher medal, food and drinks at the finish, and drinks or food at waterpoints except for the 5 km.
Medical assistance and massage are available for Xtreme, Squad and Trooper participants. International bib collection is available on Friday 9 July at Riverland Mauritius. A medical certificate is required for Xtreme 50 km, Squad 50 km and Trooper 25 km and must be issued by a registered practitioner within 12 months.
