Black Mountains 50
Hereford, United Kingdom • 11 Jul 2026
Limitless Trails’ Black Mountains event is a mountain-running challenge set in the Brecon Beacons. The program offers four distances: 50‑mile Ultra, 32‑mile Ultra, Marathon, and Half Marathon (13 miles). Runners start and finish at Longtown Hall in Herefordshire, with routes weaving through the Black Mountains and past landmarks such as Llanthony Abbey, Cat’s Back, and Waun Fach on the longer distances.
Elevations range from about 2,700 ft for the half to around 11,000 ft for the 50‑mile route. All distances are self-navigated but fully supported, including GPX/map files, trackers, checkpoints, medical cover, and on-site food. Camping nearby and post-race refreshments add to the adventure.
