Anglesey 3 Peaks Ultra - Race the Sunset 55k

A crossing of the Isle of Anglesey from east to west on a linear route taking place on 13 March 2027. The 55k course starts at Treath Lligwy, Moelfre and finishes at Church Bay on the west coast. The route takes in the summits of Mynydd Bodafon, Mynydd Eilian and Mynydd y Garn and uses the waymarked national trail, the IOA Coastal Path for large parts, with deviations inland to reach each peak. The route is fully marked and navigationally straightforward.

The course is not flat and the total ascent is 1595 m, so most competitors should expect a fair amount of walking. The event has a 12 hour time limit and is described as being within reach of fit walkers as well as ultra runners. The route is linear and a coach seat can be booked to return participants to the start point if needed. All finishers receive a bespoke wooden medal and a certificate at the finish line. The event is framed as a race against the sun as the course follows the island westwards toward Church Bay. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
