Crickhowell, United Kingdom • 13 Feb 2026

Trails & Tarmac Backyard Ultra – Winter, organized by Limitless Trails, takes place near Crickhowell in the Black Mountains, Powys (GB).

The winner is the last to finish a loop; medals are awarded to anyone reaching 32 miles, and the overall winner receives a trophy.
