Slate Trail Ultra

Slate Trail Ultra is a trail running event on 14-15 November 2026 based at Porth Penrhyn, Bangor. It uses routes on the Snowdonia Slate Trail and presents two main race options with measured distances and significant elevation gain. The event lists route maps and aid station details for each distance.

The races and key facts:

  • 147 km / 91 mi - 3,900m+ elevation, 36 hour cut-off, 8 aid stations and drop bag
  • 80 km / 50 mi - 2,300m+ elevation, 24 hour cut-off, 4 aid stations

The longer route corresponds to the full Snowdonia Slate Trail for UTMB points while the shorter route covers Snowdonia Slate Trail highlights for UTMB points. Organiser information notes aid stations and drop bag provision at specified points on the course. The event page lists supporting organisations and event suppliers linked to the race, and shows route maps for both distances.

Information is presented in neutral terms about distance, elevation and logistical details. Start times and some operational details are provided on organiser materials but are not stated here. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
