Fort Frenzy Ultra Festival - Vonore, TN - August 15, 2026

Fort Frenzy Ultra Festival is an endurance running event held at Fort Loudoun State Historic Park on Tellico Lake in Vonore, Tennessee. The course is a 3.65 mile loop with about 500 feet of elevation gain per loop. The loop goes around Tellico Lake, is mostly on trail, and the non‑trail paved section is at the pavilion where the loop begins and ends. The park setting provides lake views and rolling hills and multiple access points for family and crew.

Event distances and formats include:

  • 24 Hour
  • 12 Hour
  • 6 Hour
  • 6 Hour Ruck
  • 3 Hour

The 6 Hour Ruck is for rucksacks only with required dry weights: men 30 lb, women 20 lb, boys under 15 20 lb, girls under 15 10 lb. Ruck finishers receive a patch and weight must be clearly stamped plate or equivalent; removal or reduction of weight during the event is not authorized.

The festival also offers a Tennessee Double Ultra option that pairs this 24 hour event with a second 24 hour race and provides locking medals and a plaque for participants who complete both. Prizes and awards include finisher awards, top three male and female awards for each distance, and a $500 prize for anyone who breaks the 24 hour course record of 113.15. The event is organized by East Coast Adventures. No refunds or deferrals are offered. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
